The only issue was the wait time. But that can be expected at any restaurant at any given time. Staff was nice and very accommodating. The food, while kind of pricey (only because everything is a la carte') was absolutely DELICIOUS. Everything was cooked to perfection and well seasoned. The ambiance was really nice as well. I'll definitely be going back.
