    Lively atmosphere a little hard to hear the server explain the menu, however, the service did not delay. Bartender went above and beyond walked around the bar to hand us our drinks as to not reach over the people were sitting in front of us. Everything we ate was amazing. Definitely will be returning!

    Very well organized and on point. The servers are wonderful and very helpful. Grace was our server and she did a phenomenal job taking care of us on valentines! Everything is clean and maintained. It was fun grilling your own food. The food was top notch and worth more than we paid in my opinion. I’ve paid more for terrible food. But in this case I paid less for amazing food. Will definitely be returning and bringing more friends with me to experience this amazing place!!
