My husband and I left dinner last night and couldn’t stop talking about how great it was. First of all, the inside is decorated so wonderfully for Christmas… it’s just beautiful! The service was beyond what we’ve had at any other restaurant in the DFW area. Now let’s talk about the food! I don’t even know where to start. We ordered 7 different items and each one was amazing!! My husband said “I think this is the best dinner we’ve had since moving to Texas!”, and that was 6 years ago! 10 out of 10! We will be back!
