    Server was attentive and food was great. Ribeye was great for myself but the food is great. Sundays are even better than saturdays if you want a funner vibe. Went for mothers birthday and she had a blast on a saturday morning. 13 of us and had zero issues. So good!

    Romantic/beautiful place for a date night or even a celebration for dinner! We went for Valentines Day. They had a set menus which was all delicious, the price was a little high, but nothing too crazy. Drinks were delicious and service was near perfect. They were late on some drinks and food but our server Rocky made sure we got those quickly after she noticed they were taking a little long. Even provided us with free dessert for the wait on some of our food and drink but overall good experience!

    I’d give it a 4.5. Just because the ambience was great, however I think the tables Close Together which is kind of annoying. Besides that everything else looks perfect. The food was great. A lot of the plates and dishes were five stars but I think somewhere 3.5 to 4 only because I feel like they were missing extra for example, Cheese’s, or seasoning. But besides that 10/10 would come here again. The Food was overall enjoyable, the place was beautiful the service was amazing.
