    I took a friend for dinner and they have been many years since she’s been to this type of restaurant. We had a wonderful meal and the chef was very entertaining and accommodating. My friend cannot eat seafood and she is also lactose intolerant so the chef smells very careful to make sure that he honored her allergies and gave her an excellent meal. We will definitely be back.

    It was me and my boyfriend’s first time coming here, and we wanted something special for our anniversary and it was a wonderful experience! Everyone was nice but our server was especially very kind and attentive. We got the calamari for an appetizer which was delicious and cooked perfectly. I got the tilapia with mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts, and my boyfriend got the shrimp with scallops and mashed potatoes also and we loved it all! Our favorite part was dessert, we got the butter cake and it just melts in your mouth. It was perfect and we can’t wait to go back!
