    We were in town for Christmas and wanted to have a nice meal on Christmas night. Everything from the food to the service was amazing. We had the funfetti cake special that they had for Christmas and it was delicious as well. Easily the best meal we have had in a while.

    We came over to check in about 15 mins before our reservations and we were seared immediately. Everyone was so friendly and polite. The place was decorated beautifully. We love the fairies that come around to the table no matter how old you are. They were so sweet and make the experience even more enjoyable. Our waiter was wonderful so attentive, never having to look for him, always refilling our glasses and providing prompt and friendly service. Food came out quick and was very good. We never felt rushed. We were able to go by the tree and take pictures. It was just a fabulous time. We had our first experience there last year and now we’ve made this an annual tradition. We look forward to many more years to come.

    I just ordered the R burger. I didn’t realize how huge it was, but it was definitely worth the price. And my server was super kind. I already made another reservation for next week.
