    Katelyn did a great job. Caesar Salad very disappointing, too much dressing which made the lettuce limp, presentation poor. French Onion soup fantastic as was a he Short Ribs.

    This was an anniversary dinner, my first visit. My wife had been previously but it had been a while ago. Our waiter Tre was excellent, very good sense of timing. We ordered a very nice Cabernet and started with the grilled romaine salad. It was exceptional, well prepared with a great dressing and generous bacon and Gorgonzola. I ordered a medley with a petite fillet, blackened shrimp, andouille sausage and garlic mashed potatoes. The fillet was slightly overcooked but still tender and flavorful. My wife had the salmon with fingerling potatoes and green beens. Again the salmon was slightly overcooked but still enjoyable. We finished with a generous portion of triple chocolate cake which was outstanding.

    From the moment we pulled up to Valet to the moment we returned to our vehicle, everyone we came in contact with was excellent, from the valets to the hostess, and our waitress was absolutely amazing. Ally made the evening great. The food was prepared to perfection. We were celebrating a birthday and she took the time to make the evening special. Can’t wait to go back
