    The happy hour cocktails were so good and the saganaki was some of the best seasoned I’ve had. Will definitely be coming back!

    Thoroughly enjoyed our evening. There was a mistake with our reservation, but it was quickly and appropriately handled. We had a great time and even pushed back our dinner reservation last minute so we could enjoy more time over drinks and listening to live music. We will absolutely be back.

    Had a nice time but the vocals on the pianist were way too loud, and he played every song at a super high tempo, which sounded ridiculous

    Food was great. Filet was cooked perfectly, Parmesan fries were amazing and chopped salad was also really good. Loved the ambiance except the huge TV’s everywhere. It would be nice if they hid them somehow for the dinner hours because it just ruins the feel of the experience.
