The decor and staff: The hostess was awesome and so kind! Loved the live music, and I’m amazed at the guitar skills and very positive song selection. It was great. The food: The filet had good flavor and naturally is a smaller meat, but as their top food item the potatoes and green beans they give you are disappointing. Very much expect to go for the experience rather than to eat a meal, because you will leave hungry - and I’m only a 118 lb female.

My husband and I really enjoyed our experience... we hope to make it a tradition to go during the holidays, as it was so beautifully decorated. We cannot wait to go again, the food was so good, and cocktails were perfection. Our server, along with the other staff, were wonderful as well.

Outstanding Service and Food for Birthday Celebration. You have to request the Veuve Sparklers and Saber! Definitely worth the extra for the experience. We will be back to celebrate again in the Champagne Garden.

The Christmas decorations were fabulous! Loved the Holiday Vibes! Our server, Marie, was amazing. She was very attentive and the details were not missed. She was even kind enough to take our family photo before we left. The food was lukewarm warm at best on arrival. I believe had it been hot and had some seasoning it would have been much better. It seemed moot to return it —-as the outer seating area was just a bit chilly. I understand that covered seating has its challenges. We missed out on the cinnamon roll and mulled wine. Insert sad face here. Again, it was lovely and enjoyable on the way it was intended for my family- being able to spend time together in a Holiday environment.
