From the moment we stepped in and to the moment we left, we were such well taken cared for. SHIA thought of every little detail. Not only was the food amazing but it truly was the people that made the difference. You could feel the warmth and genuineness shine through every person we interacted with. It was a cozy and intimate night we won't ever forget.

EXCELLENT in all ways except one. I found the music to be a bit too loud. It was fine when I was eating or talking with the person next to me, but when the staff behind the counter was talking to me about wines and the food, I had a hard time hearing because of the music. If it was turned down just a bit that would be nice. FYI, my hearing is fine.
