    Michelle (sp?) was our server and she was absolutely phenomenal. Her knowledge of the menu helped guide us in the direction that we wanted to go for the food that we wanted to eat. She was also conversational, but not overly so. She hung around long enough to be pleasant, but then left us to our own devices at appropriate times. For a server, timing is everything, and she had it! The food was also amazing! There’s a reason this restaurant is rated number two in the country for being restaurants. They do not disappoint!

    Went for daughter’s birthday lunch. Waiter was nice but at times we couldn’t find him. Salmon was prepared perfectly and the salad it came with was amazing. Chocolate cake wasn’t good. Very disappointed. It was very cold and hard.
