Everything was fantastic, the service could have been a bit better in terms of removing empty plates and bringing new drinks. I will say they were very helpful and even recommended a great wine. Food was excellent.

made the reservation for a birthday celebration on the recommendation of the honorary On a Sunday evening it was very busy and we had reservations. We were greeted quickly both by host and server. Ths downsides were.: mid December by the windows seem like there was no heat on in the place. Many tables around us. People have their coats on. It was cool seating; replaced our order and on two occasions the waitress came back to tell us they were out of three of our meals and two of our sides. We plunged back in ordered new things and were served one of our sides before any other meal came by like 15 to 20 minutes.. when we did receive food, which wasn’t too long of a wait it was pretty good. The decor and atmosphere of the place were great. We did indicate it was a birthday, but there wasn’t any kind of special effort on the restaurants part.
