This place was nothing short of amazing! Our server Brenden was spectacular, he made me and my fiancée feel very welcomed and comfortable. We live an hour away from the restaurant but it was all worth it. The food/drinks were fantastic. Definitely plan on coming back and Brenden has to be our server!!!

My wife and I went for a late Valentine's Day dinner and were served by Marc. The restaurant was decorated amazingly for Valentine's Day and even though it was busy we did not wait long after our reservation time. Marc was great and explained everything to us with the Romantic Experience meal. Overall, the experience was great, the drinks were perfectly made and the portions did not leave us hungry.
