    This is one of our favorite restaurants. Have never had anything but great experiences here. Seemed like each time one of our party ordered; someone else at the table re-evaluated their selection and changed their order. The choices are really good, it would be hard to go wrong. Our Server was patient with the changes and did a great job. Everyones food was excellent and we had a great time catching up with old friends. Thanks
