    First thing, we were very pleased that the hostess was able to quickly seat us in a booth. My wife has mobility issues, and it was of prime importance that we got a booth. Our server, Clark, was professional and friendly. Our meals, Prime Rib, Pistachio Snapper, and Salmon were all delicious. Sound level, for Christmas, was vibrant but not too loud at all. Overall, a pretty good experience.
