Our waitress was as attentive as she could be under the circumstances, and very pleasant and courteous even though she was very rushed. The food was excellent and well presented. I think the main issue was that they were severely overbooked. I would eat there again, but maybe not on Christmas Day.

I understand it was a busy time but we watched people coming in and being seated right away. An acknowledgment that we were there or an offer of a cocktail while we were waiting would have gone a long way. We were so disappointed. We came in June for brunch and it was amazing. I'm sure it was last night too.

Sometimes we push our abilities too close to the edge and what this Restaurant is about. By not taking into consideration the Holiday and that our guests want to sit and talk after service caused a painful backlog. I will reach out to you in your Private Note. Again my apologies.

They have four options of de-alcoholized wine!!!! The downside- though I had confirmed twice through text messaging that I was keeping my reservation, when I called they said they didn’t have it. They said they could accommodate us (two people) at two different times then originally confirmed. We expected a full restaurant but there were only four tables being used throughout our entire dining experience. Considering how few people were there, the wait for drinks was incredibly long.
