Best filet ever. Perfectly cooked and delicious. Add the $22 buck Mac and Cheese for a treat for the table. You won’t regret it.

Food here is delicious, presentation is attractive, decor is cozy, service is friendly and efficient. The menu seemed a bit underwhelming to me at first with relatively few choices that I thought I would like, but everything I tasted was fantastic, so I got some culinary and gustatory education.

Our group of 6 dined on the patio on Christmas Eve. It was a very busy evening. Service was great and we appreciated the lower noise level outside. We would visit again. Thanks for an enjoyable experience.
