We had 4 in our group. Two of us ordered the Salmon bowl which we have had several times in the past. As usual, it was delicious. Our two guests were pleased with the tacos and pork but after they saw our salmon bowl, they wished they had ordered it instead. Our servers were exceptional, friendly and polite.

Service was great, as usual. Manger move us from a small table center room to a larger table by the window. Much better. Wait staff was excellent. Food service was paced, not rushed-he checked back often to insure everything was going well. Food was excellent, will be back.

Monday's wine and dine of two salads and two entrees and a bottle of wine for $65 remains a great value and deal! Especially since Bennett's finally listened and stopped chilling the red wines! That made no sense at all! So, now my wife enjoyed her sea bass and i enjoyed the meat loaf with a perfect glass of cab and then took the rest of the bottle home!
