    I love dining at your restaurant Always great food and great service Today, there was a large truck alongside the building. It was VERY difficult to exit my space. There was another customer who also had great difficulty. A Fed Ex driver helped us both. The driver of the delivery truck, delivering to you, was not at all helpful Just letting you know.

    A perfect birthday dinner from start to finish! Impeccable service and outstanding food and drink. Hubby’s Ribeye was the best steak either one of us has ever tasted. We were seated near the fireplace and the ambiance was warm and festive. We have been here several times and while the experience is always a great one, this one was exceptional. We sadly had no room for dessert, but our waiter Jacob sent us home with two chocolate truffles which was a very nice touch. We will certainly be back.
