    Freddie, our waiter, was excellent—attentive, personable, and made us feel welcome. The food exceeded our expectations, with flavors that truly impressed. The atmosphere perfectly matched what we were hoping for, creating a comfortable and inviting dining experience. The complimentary champagne welcome drink while we waited was a thoughtful touch.

    We made reservations at 9! I expected to be seated no later than 9:15. We didn’t sit down in our seats till 9:45pm. And food didn’t come out till 10:30. Definitely wouldn’t dine at dinner time again. Just going to stick with lunch. And the hostess and not attentive at all!

    The service was a bit poor at the door. Got a reservation but still had to wait about 20 minutes at the door to tell them, “ hey I have a reservation “, after I told them they gave me and the wife complimentary champagne which was nice. Waited about 10 more minutes in the crowded door area then once seated everything was great. Services from the waitress were great. Food was great. Steak and lobster was amazing. Wife had ravioli and steak. Sushi was great. Over all everything else was great. Just right there when you walk in was crowded and had to wait even though we had reservations.
