Great date dinner with hubby before a holiday play! The Main is gorgeous right now! 🎄Very lively and a bit noisy but to be expected in the bar area. We enjoy the energy. Food was yummy, drinks perfect. 🍸 Our waiter was very good and super friendly but stretched a bit thin… no problem because other staff members jumped in so everything arrived hot. Impressive teamwork! 👍

Our visit was great. Initially was set as a birthday visit, turned engagement party when our AMAZING wait staff was the very best. Gage was training a new employee while watching him go through and give other tables the same energy we were given with the sudden proposal. The food was fantastic and was not too overly expensive. Great drinks, food and ambiance, definitely coming back here.
