Food was amazing, ambiance was just what we needed for a Monday on a date night. Customer service was great. Shout out to Shantell(I think that’s her name but if not, I might be close. She was our server) amazing she gave good recommendations on food and drinks. She was so nice to us and also told us about what else they have going on other nights. We will definitely be going back.
