Everything was great, appetizers came out quickly but for whatever reason it seemed meals took longer than usual. I will admit the restaurant was crowded, so that could explain why. Server was very nice (Holly).

We always enjoy the food here. Having a salad included in the meal is a plus. Our only complaint is the noise level. There isn't anything in the restaurant that absorbs sound.
