    We had read previous reviews that were not so great but decided to give this place a chance to see if things had improved. Taylor was very instrumental in a 5 star review. Seems like all issues have been resolved and we fully enjoyed the dining experience.

    Food was good, but limited menu. Service was good. Cocktail was excellent, wine by the glass were all mediocre choices. A lot of add on charges. They charge a credit card fee, valet parking in their lot is $10.00 Just seemed like nickel and dime. Just add your over head to food prices.

    We celebrated our anniversary, and the food was excellent. The atmosphere is sheek and modern, with live music. Was a little loud at times, but it was manageable. Our server, Bri, was fabulous and attentive to our needs. She made our night special and went above and beyond to do so. We will return and thanks.

    It was fine, but I would not recommend and probably would not come again. Pretty slow service overall (took at least 30 -45 min just to get our first drinks and not super busy), and just a lot of things not quite up to par. We had 2 birthday girls at the table (which was noted on reservation), and the waiter didn't bother to tell us the kitchen was closing (9:30 pm) so that we could put in an order for dessert (let alone they give us something small like some other places do). I wanted to try this place for the live piano music, but the website doesn't specify which days and when I went they did not have the live music. In addition, they were rigid with check splitting (would've been only 4 ways), which again, after everything else, you think they maybe could've accommodated. One or two of these happening every so often aren't such a big deal but it all added up and did not make for the best birthday dinner. Food was good
