Excellent evening as always. Only major complaint was it was overcrowded. They stuck too many extra tables in and we were being knocked right and left. We got moved eventually. Food and wines delicious as always. It’s always tricky eating out around Xmas season, as everyone is doing the same thing. Love the breads, and that they made me a dish that wasn’t on the menu. PS you need additional restrooms.

Our waitress, Madison, was exceptional. The staff also gave my wife and me a hand-written anniversary card -- a nice touch! The food was excellent. We brought our three kids along. This was the first time they had fondue. It was a special night together for our family.

We had a lovely lunch. My burrito was huge! Could only eat half. Portions are great for the money. Beautiful decor inside. My girlfriend had the Jicama salad and loved it. We had a nice time without feeling rushed.
