This was our second time eating here (and it’s only been open for a week so far!). Food is excellent, portions are HUGE and service is terrific. Both times I had salads - absolutely delicious and really filling. My husband got a burger and fries and loved it. Our server Jason was terrific and really knew the menu. I liked that he confirmed with us what we ordered so it all came out perfect!

The only problem we had with the food is the salt level. We’ve been in on a walk-In basis and sat at the bar and all food was phenomenal! Food tonight was excellent but not the same. Everything was too salty! Will return but will be careful about what we order. SERVICE WAS ABOVE EXCELLENT!

Beautiful restaurant, wonderful menu, and great service—knowledgeable and attentive server! Food and drinks were unique and delicious. A bit pricey but worth it for the food, ambiance and service. The only negative would be that the room got noisy with the large parties that surrounded us, one with a small child.
