Absolutely delicious food and the service was beyond what I expected for a Christmas dinner. The staff working on Christmas Day were extremely pleasant and hard working to ensure all the tables were taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious. The New York steak was beyond delicious and all our drinks were also perfection. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice and a place we could sit and talk comfortably.
