    I called to see if I could move our reservation for a party of 7 up one hour and they accommodated me right away with a great table by the window. Our servers, Katie and Kimberley were outstanding with great recommendations and knowledge of the menu. The food was delicious. We were celebrating the holidays with family and were not rushed in any way. Looking forward to going back.

    Over server Nancy was exceptional she made the dinning experience worth it. This was our first visit and once renovations are complete we will be going back again. The only dislike I had was we sat at a two seater table where the kitchen is and were constantly being bumped into. Otherwirse, the food, drinks and service was wonderful.

    Everything was excellent except for the saltiness of my wife's vegetable entree . It was the tempura glaze . Very salty she could not eat it. Manager was very gracious and took it off the bill ....
