My daughter and I went for a celebration of life dinner. Started with a signature cocktail that was delightful, followed by 2 appetizers, salad and then the main course. The food was delicious and we were amazed how each bite blended flavors in every dish. Topped off with a piece of chocolate cake. I’ll be back. Thanks for a wonderful evening.

Our first visit to this place was incredible! Taylor, our server, was an absolute lifesaver. He gave us some fantastic recommendations and made sure we had the best time. The food was absolutely delicious! The pork chops were huge and bursting with flavor, and my wife’s fillet was perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The mac and cheese was to die for - it was so creamy and indulgent. We’ll definitely be back because there are so many dishes we still need to try.
