    First time to this restaurant and I've been hearing a lot about it and I see why, Sara and Mike were great! I was on a first date and they made our date night even better. Service was professional and friendly all the way from the host stand to the table and the food was outstanding. This company knows what they're doing, will be back for sure

    The food was delicious. We had the braised ribs, lobster risotto, and English Toffee Pudding. The staff were very attentive and even though we arrived earlier than opening they allowed us to wait in the warm restaurant instead of outside. The only complaint is that 20% surcharge that does not include the tip. So we felt we were essentially having to give 40% above the cost of the meal.

    I enjoyed the food, but I was disappointed that I couldn't make any changes to the brunch items. I was told that everything is pre-prepared and served exactly as described on the menu. For instance, I don't like mushrooms and couldn't request their removal from my omelet. The waiter explained that it would be too time-consuming and put too much strain on the kitchen staff to cook items to order.

    Beginning with a drink at the bar, prompt seating at our table and friendly welcome, it was a wonderful night. We started with the oysters and shrimp cocktail. Both were large and fresh. The salmon and crab cakes were served properly cooked at the appropriate temperature. To finish dinner we found room to share the Brownie Sundae. Oh my!! It was amazing. We’ll definitely be back.
