Could not have had a better experience to celebrate my mother’s 75th birthday! We were seated immediately, taken care of exquisitely by our server, and the food was amazing! The server even decorated my mother’s dessert with the 7 and 5 backwards to make it look like she’s only 57, which we had been joking about. As we left, the server even chased us down in the parking lot because my mother had left one of her gifts on the table. Highly recommend for any special occasion!!

Food and service were great. Neat concept - serving food as a flight, as well as serving wines like that. The table was kinda small - we both had wine flights and dinner flights that took up a lot of room. Very noisy. Don’t plan on having conversations.

Our experience tonight was amazing! We stopped coming here due to the terrible customer service and wait times in the past. Tonight we had Haylee as our waitress and she was so sweet and efficient. Haylee is the reason we will come back again!
