    Our server Kaylah was personable and so friendly. We were treated like family. It added so much to our dining experience. All of the wait staff and servers were excellent. Top notch service. It’s a small venue and the patrons seated behind us were very loud. The food was some of the best in flavor and quality that we’ve had in a long time. The filet was outstanding and cooked perfectly. Lobster gnocchi, next level. “Appy hour” specials an added bonus! Highly recommended.

    Sushi and drinks were fantastic. Godfather Roll and Surf and Turf were my favorites. The lobster gnocchi was out of this world! The service was attentive and genuine. We will be back!

    Went for a family gathering as a party of six. The restaurant is attractive although the only table large enough for us was in the back of the room. It was lively enough that we felt like we were out in a popular spot, but not so noisy to make conversation difficult. The staff were friendly and attentive. The high point was the food. Its true the oysters are small, but they were tasty. We had six different entrees and every one was good. We all enjoyed the experience.
