Food was solid- love it! We did not particularly care for the waiter. We ate outside generally we have excellent service, but this time was different. he was not particularly helpful almost to the point of being rude.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Cane. My wife and I agreed that this very well may have been the best meal that we’ve had this year. The staff was welcome and accommodating. And while the place is small, we were very comfortable the entire time. We will definitely be back!!
