    Spencer was a great bartender though I felt both bartenders were a bit overwhelmed with the crowd which made the service a bit slower than expected. But Spencer rose to the occasion every time and was a wonderful host and bartender. The food was good. The Salmon Risotto was perfect but the chef needs to work on the shirt ribs. The flavor seemed more like a pot roast than a short rib. Polenta was good but a little basic. We definitely will be returning again as we had a fun night thanks to the hostesses and Spencer.

    Menu didn’t have a lot of options. Light menu. Drinks were good and were flexible with not being able to drink vodka. Really enjoyed it. We would go back again

    The food was absolutely delighting, and the presentation was visually appealing. Service was great and there was light music playing in the background. They have a dessert bar at the entrance of the restaurant that we went to and bought a ton of stuff. This is a great little place for a first date or for a group of friends to get together and not break the bank.

    We went during restaurant week so it was busy but the food was great and our waitress was working hard. They had a musician playing at front and the bar area was busy but we were able to find a seat to grab drinks before our table was ready.
