   Our waitress was amazing, taking care to make sure we had everything we wanted and taking care with a smile and promptness. The way she ordered our meal was spot on, letting us eat our soup and salad and then ordering our main course. She should be commended highly by you and she is by us as well.

   Actually, very disappointed. First couple arrived and were seated and served their cocktails. My wife and I arrived, close to ten minutes went by after we were seated before the waitress came out to the table to take our drink orders. After all, six of us were seated, and placed our dinner orders, another 15 minutes later the waitress came out to tell my wife that they were all out of perch, so she had to choose something else. My wife not wanting to hold up everyone else's dinners, ordered Shrimp Scampi. When the entrees came out, hers did not and she had to wait for hers to come out. Our friend ordered sautéed fish, his came out crusted and deep fried the same as his wife's. he had to send it back. She enjoyed hers, when my wife's Shrimp Scampi arrived, it was like a bowl of soup! It did have large shrimp in it, I will give them that, but it was over seasoned, almost tasted sour like it had half a bottle of lemon poured in it and was almost soup like. She ate two of the shrimp out of it and ate a piece of bread. the other couple ordered some sort of fried chicken dish which they enjoyed. We were all almost finished with our dinners when our friends sautéed fish arrived, but like all of us, the steamed vegetables, the carrots and the broccoli was so hard you had to use a knife to cut them in half and eat them. Our friend was offered a free desert for the chef's mistake on his fish, my wife was simply told so sorry we are out of perch. All the employees tried hard to get the food out as quickly as possible, but this was a 4:30 in the afternoon monthly get together with this group of friends and I am sorry to say, we were all in agreement, there are too many choices in a five square mile area to chance an unpleasurable experience such as what we had. Sad because the potential, and the management try hard, they just really missed the mark again for perfection and a pleasurable experience.

   I normally order Prime Rib when dining out, so I know what to expect. I ordered the $46 Prime Rib and it was just meh. It was not a piece of meat I would pay $46 again for! It seemed like they were trying to pass off a different cut of beef almost. The au jus that was supposed to come with it was actually Zip sauce and the horseradish sauce I normally order with my Prime Rib was must meh, also.

   Our waitress, Bruna was one of the best I have ever experienced, a truly beautiful person. Our food was fantastic, Oso Buco and a pasta dish were both awesome. The ambiance is usually awesome but on thin night they were set up for a special high attendance celebration, even though it is a beautiful room. We have a connection to the chef, so came out yo greet us too. It was a wonderful experience snd we will continue to visit!!

   Our waitress Bianka made the experience even better. The food was fresh and well prepared. Will go back again. When you get atmosphere, the food, and the service right I will always return. So will others.
