    Our Server was one of the best we’ve had in a long time. We came with three of our friends for my wife’s birthday and walked away very satisfied. We had the dumplings, oysters, chowder fries, and deviled eggs to start and finished with the full fried chicken. Not only was the food wonderful but the staff had each item delivered on cue every time. Thanks everyone who worked last night.

    Jun was a great experience! The food was great, super complex in flavors and textures in every dish, which is something I love! The restaurant itself was very beautiful! Our servers were fine, nothing to to write home about, but the rest of the staff such as the food runners, etc. were very sweet and provided amazing service! I would definitely recommend this place and sit at the counter with the view of the kitchen if you can!!

    It was reallllly great! We enjoyed every bit of it- service was spectacular, every single employee was on top of it, kind, knowledgeable. Food was incredible. Tableside Caesar salad was amazing. We got the Ribeye and it was delicious especially with a side of Turners sauce. Brussel sprouts were *chefs kiss*! I wasn’t crazy about the Alaskan crab Mac and cheese. But I would definitely get the puréed potatoes next time, a little scoop came with our steak and I wanted more!! The tableside martini cart added such a special touch. My husband and I enjoyed the interactive experience. We will definitely be back!

    Overall nice dining experience. Room was comfortably filled but didn’t appear loud like so many restaurants. Easy to converse without raising voices. Holiday menu was great, nice selections not on the normal menu. Well prepared, and saved room for the flan and Christmas mousse
