    Service was amazing. Our main server was charismatic, efficient and so funny. A manager stopped by and asked if she could do anything for our children, and I asked for crayons. They unfortunately did not have any yet as they just opened, but she brought over an etch a sketch and a doodle pad. My 4 year old was over the moon! The food was impeccable as usual, but the service at this location will keep me coming back here !

    The waiter was very professional and well versed and experienced. The Halibut was a little dry but the 3 other meals were perfect. The seafood pasta was light in sauce and not overwhelming like other places. Just right and not too creamy. Salads were amazing Pricing was a little high mostly due to high alcohol costs. for example, the Rombauer should NOT be $40 a glass when you can buy a bottle of it at the store for that. We had 3 drinks and 4 cmplete meals without appetizers for $519. You can compare from there.
