I can hear for my birthday and from the beginning, hostess was so nice and pleasant. I was presented with a rose and complimentary champagne. Food was excellent and presentation awesome. My server, Ibrahim was most excellent, definitely knows his stuff. We will definitely return and check out the brunch selection.
