    Wonderful, attentive service. Beautifully decorated space with a gorgeous view. Brunch was tasty and the bloody mary with chicken and waffles was a meal in itself. Will definitely return.

    Our party of six had a wonderful outing on a busy Saturday night. The staff was attentive to our party’s requests and made very good drink recommendations. Everyone enjoyed their entrees, which included the salmon, grilled chicken breasts, and the ravioli. All were delicious. Even with a full restaurant, it didn’t seem too loud. Our party was able to converse without raising our voices. Although the bar area was really close to our table, we didn’t hear any carryover conversations. That could be due to the light traffic at the bar on this night. But it didn’t seem like a raucous bar would be the norm here on any night. We will likely book here again when we’re in the area for our next show.

    Overall the food was good, we ordered the porterhouse for 2, ribeye, & salmon. The only thing that was lack luster was the service. Our waiter left without saying anything and we were waiting for the check for about 30 minutes. Finally another waiter noticed we were waiting to leave and helped cash us out.
