    The French onion soup was delicious! My wife had the burger and said it was fantastic, and after I tried a bite I totally agree. Melt in your mouth texture for sure! My ribeye was delicious and tender. Nice quiet atmosphere made for a great date night. We will be back.

    I took my two girls friends here as I had an amazing experience with my mom back in november. The food was good however one of my dear friends has a dairy intolrance and every food item that came to the table had dairy and we informed our server multiple times about her dairy needs. This was extremely disappointing.

    Mgr./hostess: Savannah greeted me with a smile by name & seated me at favorite table. Per my interest in a non alcoholic specialty drink she had Jeff, bartender mix up something special for me. I’ve been blessed to have Savannah service me before and she’s consistently offered excellent customer care & service, always pleasantly professional. Tonight, I also had the pleasure of getting Francisco as my waiter for the first time. He was attentive & accommodating each request with patience & a smile and in a timely manner. His attention to detail as only one example: keeping my water glass filled was appreciated. When dining alone I am grateful for such friendly wait staff yet was impressed at how well Francisco balanced his attention with other guests. From several different visits my husband & I have noticed the consistently excellent customer service. No, I haven’t forgotten my food… French onion soup, Salad and Sticky Toffee Date Cake were wonderful.

    The food is delicious, the ambience is perfect for a quiet meal. The bar is below the top seating area, so the noise level is fine. Service is impeccable! Food is delicious.

    The food was yummy, and received large portions for the price. However, didn't receive much wine in a glass for $12!
