Was seated right away even tho I was early and part of my party wasn’t there. Great service. Greeted promptly. Everyone was friendly. Atmosphere was relaxed, inviting. This is our second time going for Christmas Eve and will definitely be back to be able to sit outside in the warmer months. Food was delicious and inventive. Loved the hand crafted drinks. All in all a great experience.

Soooo, I did chat with the manager…our server got overwhelmed and seemed to miss a drink order and when I inquired she b came very moody. I even shared with the manager that I apologize for upsetting her, it didn’t change the behavior and completely impacted our experience. The staff seemed under prepared for the evening.
