Emily, our server, was a delight. It was not a busy evening so she had time to talk with us. She made the evening very special for us. We were old friends catching up and requested a table where we could sit and be able to speak without too much noise and that is exactly what we got. The renovations are lovely, the food was delicious and half price bottles of wine were all reasons it was a lovely evening.
