    The food and service were good, it was extremely busy due to the federal holiday; too much noise made it harder to have clear conversations.

    My wife and I went to Kirby club for their Valentine’s Day special. First thing that stood out was the preparedness of the staff to seat us right away. Secondly, the restaurant’s interior looks so much better in person. I loved the atmosphere. We did the 3-course dinner special with wine pairings. Every part of the meal was delicious and the bartenders were very busy, yet very attentive to us. And I can’t forget to mention the rest of the staff, all contributing to a wonderful experience. Thank you for making our Valentine’s Day a special one!
