    We had Christmas Eve dinner here. What a wonderful Feast of Seven Fishes! The food was excellent and the service was top-notch. The kicker was the singer, who really made the night for us with her combination of Christmas songs and old classics!

    The food here is always amazing. However, tonight on Christmas Eve they were having serious issues with their ordering system. We had to wait almost 30 minutes for our cocktails. But the food was wonderful. Will always definitely keep going back.

    It is just a fantastic place. We celebrated my mom’s birthday last night and everything was amazing. They always go above and beyond for their customers and their food is simply delicious. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.

    The food was excellent and the waiters were friendly and helpful. However, they were seriously understaffed and that caused several problems with the service. Just one of the problems was that after waiting 25-30 minutes for dessert, the waiter told us he had forgotten it. And it was difficult to get anyone’s attention.
