We love having a cocktail at the bar before we are seated. There is a neighborhood, homey feel because both the bartenders and clientele interact with each other. The food is always delicious. The hostesses, bartenders and servers all make sure every visitor has a wonderful experience.

Food and service was excellent. Unfortunately could not carry on a conversation. The noise level was off the charts. More like a party bar and we sat in the dining room.
