    After some confusion about our reservation \seating, all was fine until blip #2. Several of the Valentine’s specials had a petite filet. The steak in one our dinners was so tough it absolutely couldn’t be cut. We were served a new steak, which didn’t arrive until we were about to leave.we asked for it “to go,”. Our server was superb… kept us informed, on the spot with needs. She was very helpful with special -needs guest.
