    We liked it. The food wasn’t worth the price, unfortunately, even after sending a dish back to the kitchen. We also got up charged due a drink when the waiter didn’t clarify which drink we ordered. Overall, we liked it.

    Food was great, only negative is that it is very bright in there :) if you want a dimly lit restaurant , def not the place. They intermittently dim the lights and you get about three seconds of relief from the surgical lights and then right back to thinking it’s daytime…

    The overall experience was amazing and we will return. The only food item that did not live up to the quility of the resturant was the unbelievable bad bread. That is the only disconnect with the rest of the food. It didn't make sense to us how bad it was. Everything else was outstanding.

    WOW!! My husband and I got married yesterday, December 31st, 2024, and we decided to celebrate at a new restaurant which was this AMAZING place! We couldn't have had a better time! Everyone was so polite and energetic! Our waiter, Mario, was excellent, kind, and attentive! We even spoke to Michael, the GM, who congratulated us on our marriage and gave my husband a shot on the house! They also treated us with two delicious desserts! Visitors from inside even stopped to say 'congratulations!' It was so beautiful inside and the piano music was a plus! The food was delicious, my husband said it was the best filet mignon he ever had! And they even made me a tasty Mocktail because I can't drink alcohol right now as we are expecting. My husband and I cannot wait to come back again AND SOON! Hopefully we can meet Chef Joey next time!

    Excellent service, drinks, and dessert. The main courses we had (lasagna and spicy seafood) were good but not spectacular. Interior feels like Vegas- loud and over done. Fun for a lively evening I suppose, but won’t be a regular for us.

    Steven was an amazing server who made great recommendations and spaced out our food perfectly. Our waters were filled all night and we had a great time!
