    We were there for my son’s 12th bday with a few of his friends. Great food, service, comfortable table, and fun atmosphere. We had our own water dispenser that was refilled upon request which came in handy for a table of 12. Kids had a great time. We brought our own cake and had to serve it ourselves, but no biggie. Love D&B!
