    The dress code said smart casual but it was definitely more like gym casual. It was crowded which I do expect on a Friday night but our reservation was for 7:00, we didn’t get seated until after 7:30. The front of the house staff was not friendly but the servers and chef were very friendly. The restaurant needs an update to the interior. Tables and chairs were old and very worn. I wouldn’t not go back.
