    It was a last minute decision to make reservations due to it being NYE. It was extremely busy! Definitely glad we made reservations because people were attempting to do walk ins and couldn’t get serviced. My husband and I enjoyed the food! The servers were quick, efficient and were very personable. The chimichuri was excellent! We paid about $60 per person. They did automatically do gratuity for two people and didn’t let us know before but we still tipped on top of that. Overall great experience and would recommend!

    Very busy and thus the experience was not that good. Hostess was overworked - only one hostess to seat on a very busy night. Hostess was gone from host stand greater than 5mn more than one time. So many tables squished close together made it hard to get to salad bar. Salad bar was emptied quickly. Pop was 4.50 per bottle! Auto 20% gratuity added to a table of 2 people. Additional food charge I think was 9%. Twice I asked for beef and received all fat slice. Hard to get pineapple. The servers were running around attempting to serve everyone and it was clear they were short handed. Poor planning? I don't know. Had to pay $10 for parking as all free parking was filled up. Walked 2 blocks to get from where we parked to front door on a cold night.

    Food are generally great but lamb hardly come out and salty. We need to request and ask the server to stop at our table. Not a good time to go on busy night.
