We were warmly welcomed the moment we walked in. Timothy and Emma took care of our table with superb style. They provided excellent service and suggestions. Timothy made us feel like we were the only people in the room and added some laughs as a bonus. The sea bass was delicate and flavorful. We enjoyed every moment with all of the staff we came in contact with. I don't think it would be very much fun to work Christmas Day, but you couldn't tell it from the staff here. Oh, and the music wasn’t too loud!
