This was our first visit to the restaurant. The place was very full and it was clear from the moment we sat down they were short staffed. Mike, the host, was very cordial and helpful and came over right away to take our drink order. The selections were excellent and the food was absolutely delicious! When it came time for the bill, Eric, our server, was most apologetic…. not an apology we felt we needed or asked for…telling us about the short staff issue and apologizing that the service was not the norm. We appreciated that, but given the crowd, all was understandable. We look forward to another visit.
