So many memories here and really sad that it’s all coming to an end. I couldn’t possibly let this restaurant go out of business without one less spin. Thanks for all the good times.

The experience was phenomenal as per usual. Deeply intrigued by the ambiance and decor every time I set foot into this establishment! My best friend and I dine at the bar often with Nikki who waits on us. She possesses an amazing skillset, displaying her craftsmanship in drinks as well as suggestions for drinks that would compliment our food choices. Since it was my friend’s birthday, we sat at a table. Our waitress Dominique was superb. Very attentive, energetic and passionate about her job. Her personality is spectacular. Excellent food recommendations . We had such a great time. Charles and Val were hospitable as always. Quite the dynamic duo for the management team! We will be back very soon.
