Great food and service was outstanding!
Seating is a bit too cramped in the dining area but other than that really enjoyed the restaurant.
Special thanks to entire team for the prompt service.

Amazing experience. My sister and I were celebrating our birthdays and the service and food was 10/10 from start to finish. Our server Stephanie was so good and I would return just because of that service even if the food wasn't good. Good thing it was so i would return for both :)
