Very nice restaurant. The serving staff is friendly and polite. They need training by the management in order to go to the next level. Example: they wiped off my table between dishes but the table was left wet. I had the waiter bring a dry cloth to wipe the wet table.

A very nice space. The staff is not trained to give that quality that is needed in order to be a Five Star restaurant. Saying that it has the potential if the management team wants to invest in its staff. It is the management not the staff. They are young and don’t no what more to do if not taught.

We were a group of 8 people.. the steak came out too rare. And we had to send it back twice.. it was way overcooked when they finally got it…..2 people had sablefish and it came out cold and they had to send it back.. each entree came out at different times.. my friend had filet mignon.. and then after 15 minutes another entree came out.. I had the duck which was terrible! I will not be returning!
