We had a wonderful 25th Anniversary dinner at Gatsby"s. Leon was the most amazing server and was helpful and kind in assisting us with our decisions. The Beef Tenderloin was melt in your mouth good and the Pavlova dessert was excellent. Just a wonderful way to celebrate our big day! Thanks Leon and the Gatsby's staff!
