    Our server Natasha was excellent, all of our food came out super fast, drinks not so much but it was busy, the only negative part was I reserved a high top inside and we were seated outside right by a continuously opening door, like an automatic door, it went off every minute, even so that did not deter from our great service

    I don't think anything can match this for festiveness and tastiness--such a lovely place to bring a family celebration, and it's been decorated just beautifully for this Christmas and New Year! There's food to please everyone and we are always treated thoughtfully and kindly by the staff. We were glad to be seated further back in the restaurant early in our dinner--the live music is a terrific tradition, but nearer the bar it can make things a bit challenging for conversation.
