Ramon, our waiter, never rushed us and checked to c if we needed anything while my friend and I chatted. My mango glazed salmon was delicious and perfectly cooked. And, Ramon and the other servers did a great Happy Birthday song, as well. It was a very enjoyable lunch, complete with music. Thank u.
