All of the staff were friendly and kind. The Salmon Oscar was perfectly cooked! We loved the wine flights, great way to taste new wines without buying a full glass or bottle.

    The two servers working were very knowledgeable and had great food and beverage suggestions. Everything was perfectly timed and the food was amazing! We had the calamari, ahi, goat cheese salad, bib beat salad, black cod, and scallops. It was my husband’s birthday …they were so sweet and had a card on the table and they bought his drinks. We had the opportunity to chat with one of the servers at the end of our meal, she was absolutely lovely!!
