The service folks are attentive but not intrusive. One thing-- you can't get the "Happy Hour specials" ( drinks & appetizers) unless you sit at the bar. So we did for our cocktails, then moved to our table. Very enjoyable meal

Once you state the policy, and it is agreed upon, no need to continue to belabor the point. It comes across as bias and is unwelcoming. Other than that, our large party was treated well, we enjoyed the server, who was very kind and patient. The food is always good and hot.

The table next to us received drinks and their meals before our drinks came. We had to cancel the rest of our order in order to leave on time for an event. Disappointing experience.

The food was very good, except the steak and fries. The steak was supposed to be medium rare and was medium and the fries were soggy by the time we got them. Everything else, seafood, drinks and dessert was delicious. We will visit again!
