    Service was a little slow at first, but good after we ordered. The food was fantastic except the nachos we ordered to go. When we got back to the room and opened the box up they looked great, but under the top layer of chips there was all chips and no cheese or toppings. It was a small box, so they were stacked thickly- Disappointed. Ask them to layer cheese and toppings if you order.

    The burger melted in my mouth. The white chocolate brownie cake was delicious. Beautiful decor.

    The waiter we had rushed us the entire time. Tried to bring us our desert before even bringing out meal, asking us (not even exaggerating) every 30 seconds if we had made our dessert selection before we finally gave up & chose something random so he would stop bothering us, and then tried to bring us our cheque every min or so once the dessert arrived. He made us feel as though it was not intended for us to actually enjoy our meal. It was more to get in and out. All in all I would not go back because of this person.

    Enjoyed our food and would return! The service was a bit rough. Just more sporadic and less consistent

    Nice atmosphere, I've been here a few times the food is good but I would say it's better when they aren't busy for food and service . Waiter was very nice , Manager not so much.
