    Great food and outstanding service! We started with the baked fontina which was a perfect portion for 2 and delicious! Husband had the octopus pasta and loved it! I had the short rib which was divine and massive. For desert we had the chocolate mousse but because I told our waiter I hated tiramisu he brought us a tiramisu too complimentary and it was actually great! Didn’t taste like someone accidentally spilled water on it like most tiramisu. Aaron and Shane were both lovely! The grounds are amazing definitely take a walk around the lagoon after dinner. We will be back!

    We had a fantastic experience overall! Our large party visited on Christmas Eve, and everything was exceptional. The atmosphere was lively and festive, setting the perfect tone for the evening. Our server, Hailey, was absolutely amazing—attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The staff as a whole felt genuinely welcoming, which added to the positive vibe. Highly recommend!
