Really good meal and great service for our dinner before a movie on Friday night. Would have liked a better table but the restaurant was really busy this night with a number of larger groups.

This was a birthday dinner for my husband. When we arrived they weren't aware, even though I had noted it on the reservation, but in all it went very well. The noise level was a bit much. It was hard to hear each other talk, but we managed. Our server, Ashely R was outstanding. She made the evening a pleasure and did attend to the birthday notification when informed. All in all it was a good evening for family celebration. Will be back for sure.
