We went with friends and their two teenage boys. We had such a wonderful time. Rooney's was beautifully decorated for Christmas. They now have a Sushi chef offering very interesting rolls along with traditional Sashimi and Sushi pieces. We were so delighted when our rolls came to the table. Almost too beautiful to eat. The appetizers were amazing. Everyone really enjoyed their meals and desserts. And the cocktails are super fabulous. A perfect evening out with friends!

Started at the bar. Bartender was very nice and helpful with wine selection. We had a party of 7 people and the server Tom was very accommodating and didn’t t rush us in any part of the meal. We had 5 birthdays and he gave us all candles with our dessert. Food was delicious will be back again soon.
