    We had a fabulous dinner with friends. The food and service were exceptional. The only negative was the noise level. They could benefit from some sound deadening panels on the ceilings.

    We enjoyed our quiet table and the young man who waited on our table was very polite and attentive but my dinner (Hanger Steak) lacked flavor and imagination. Next time I may keep it more simple like a salad or burger.

    My group had a really great time at this restaurant. We found the food to be delicious, and we had a completely wonderful server named Cass. She was just very well suited to being a server and a true sweet young lady. Overall the restaurant ambience and food was excellent!

    All the good was okay, nothing disastrous and nothing outstanding. The vegan pizza was pretty good. The bison burger was the favorite at the table.
