    Another fantastic night! There are no words to express how much we love everything about this place! Salvo is such an incredible human! I’ve never seen a manager like him. He runs food, he cleans tables, & he happily greets people. He jumps in with his staff. He makes the Experience feel like we are with family eating together. We always get the best service with Slam and wow does he know his cocktails and his food! The Chef’s are top notch for sure! We drive over a hour as often as we can to be at our favorite restaurant!
