Atmosphere is why we go every year as part of our pre Christmas tradition. Service is always outstanding and the food is fresh and delicious. I did miss the gingerbread dessert I enjoyed so much last year but the carrot cake was also amazing!

Excellent experience overall. We would like it if they added mashed potatoes to the choices if possible. It would be great with the roast beef :)
