    My wife and I love this place, and the food is always solid when we go there. The price is not cheap by any means for the food, but I believe the value is there. Our server last night was exceptional, Curtis went above and beyond with every request and adjustment we needed. The one critique I would suggest, when using open table to book the restaurant requires a $15 per person no show fee, they should in turn give you a $15 credit for not having your table ready when you arrive. We booked for 8 pm last night and had to wait 20 mins to be seated, when first approaching the reservation desk we were ask had we checked in??? there is no QR code or sign for check in??? The hostess (Both) very rude and seemed over whelmed with doing there job! Usually a simple we will get you seated as soon as we can, and thank you for your patience goes a long way!! Instead we got rude and no communication

    This was our second time having a meal here because we enjoyed our lunch so much and saw many other intriguing items on the menu we wanted to try. Four of us had dinner last evening and again were delighted! We all enjoyed our starters, drinks & entrees! The portions are generous and well-presented. And to top it off, we had excellent service from Bailey! She is professional, attentive and very friendly! We enjoyed the recommendations she gave us for the starters for happy hour too. I’m still thinking about those dumplings and roasted brussel sprouts!
