   The hostess at the entrance when we first came in couldn’t have been more rude. She didn’t greet us at all. She kept her head down as we were standing there for several minutes. All she had to do was say I’ll be right with you, but she didn’t bother to do that. She basically just scowled at us.

   45 minutes after seating to get water. Food was excellent but they were overcrowded and understaffed

   Service was horrible. We waited an hour and a half just for drinks and they gave us the wrong order. Wouldn’t recommend

   Met two friends for lunch, but planned for a late lunch to avoid the lunch crowd. We were seated immediately (on time). Service was quick, attentive, & efficient, without being intrusive. The dining room was emptying by then, so the noise level wasn’t bad. Food was served quickly and started out hot. Prices, like everywhere else, have gone up, but the food quality hasn’t gone down. Overall, I like dining here, but it is getting pricey.

   Server didn't answer questions I asked about food appropriately. She didn't offer to change the food out, since it wasn't what I expected. They then charged several extra dollars for additions to the item (that I ordered based on her suggestion), and never told me I would be charged extra. The owner came and talked to me, spoke down and made excuses for the experience. No true apology was given. They did not offer to comp the meal. They did give money back for the extra charges after a long discussion. Would not return.

   Amazing food, it was busy due to Valentines Day, but we never felt rushed and service was wonderful.
