    It’s fine. Definitely rests on its laurels and location. Food is solid but nothing all that special. Service was fine. Host was walking around with an iPad eyeing progress and resetting his seating plan which was off putting.

    Disappointing to be told we had to leave because they needed the table, but we warned about that possibility when we made reservation. Service was extremely professional, food was amazing and love music created great ambience. Would definitely come here again
