My 38th birthday dinner was fantastic and I had the 3 most important people there tonight with me. My husband, parents, & myself particularly love the quality of the water because it taste so clean , crisp, and fresh. Our server Charles was amazingly knowledgeable when he presented the type of meats, cuts, and quality of each chopped. I highly recommend the bone-in dry aged ribeye. All the food that we ordered was delectable. Thank You again for the birthday dessert. Looking forward to another great dining experience.
