    We had to wait for a table with a reservation due to wait staff. Waiter was very friendly but over whelmed. Had to wait several times for items we needed.

    Amazing place with an unforgettable experience! The atmosphere was incredibly engaging—not only was the food fantastic, but the entire night was truly awesome. Our waiter felt like a friend by the end of the evening. We came here to celebrate my nephew’s 21st birthday, and they made it so special for him! From games and karaoke to complimentary shots, it was everything we were looking for in a birthday celebration. And the best part? The Conga line—it was an absolute blast!
