    Tamara was an absolutely amazing hostess. I was unable to get in contact with the restaurant to make a last minute update to my reservation and she was beyond accommodating. My aunt has food sensitivities and Tamara addressed the matter with the manager and allowed special arrangements for my aunts needs. The entire evening was great from the time we walked in to the time we walked out. Our servers were great, very attentive. Even the security at the door was polite and helpful. Thank you for making my brother's 40th birthday dinner a delight

    Absolutely incredible experience from the ambience, aesthetics, and music. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about every menu item and gave us a wonderful breakdown of popular pairings to choose from. The unexpected star of the show were the Crispy Brussel Sprouts. They were perfect and a must!
