The food is always great, but this time the service was a little rocky. I think our waitress was new. We had a party of seven and taking orders was chaotic for her, though we went in order in a circle she missed a few orders and walked away before asking everyone to order. We had to flag down to come back. She also did not check on us often and we all ran out of drinks multiple times. Overall, the food was good, as usual, but we’ve definitely had better service in the past.

We are regulars and so are a lot of other people. The food is high quality and service is excellent. We have known the family have been running it for so long, it’s like having dinner among old friends. The place was packed the night we were there last and there was live music and that is why I rated noise level a little high on this review. I recommend making reservations if going for dinner. Lunch usually isn’t as busy.
