    My party all agreed it was one of our best meals. Everything just came out perfect. Salmon, tenderloin, and risotto entrees were fabulous. The patio/garden decorated for Christmas was festive. We had John as our server and he was so lovely, bright, and enthusiastic. This was my first time but I strongly recommend and will return myself!

    Our entire experience was amazing. The food, service, and ambience was over the top. We came to celebrate my birthday and it was special. We had the tenderloin, sea base, both pasta dishes and the risotto along with almost every side dish. We loved everything. Our server John went above and beyond to see we were taken care of.

    We ate here in November and I knew I had to take my young adult daughters when they were home for Christmas! We had a wonderful meal, served by “Santa”. My daughters loved all of the decorations, and the music was so fun and festive! The staff were especially accommodating for my daughter’s food allergy. We will certainly be back!

    Great experience. Amazing holiday decor and live music made for a very memorable night. We had the bread x 2, pork belly, salmon, pork chops, risotto and the filet. All flawless. Would go back in a heartbeat.

    The decor and staff: The hostess was awesome and so kind! Loved the live music, and I’m amazed at the guitar skills and very positive song selection. It was great. The food: The filet had good flavor and naturally is a smaller meat, but as their top food item the potatoes and green beans they give you are disappointing. Very much expect to go for the experience rather than to eat a meal, because you will leave hungry - and I’m only a 118 lb female.
