    We had a toddler in our party and our server went out of her way to make it a good experience for her and therefore, for all of us.

    Need to check each table to ensure it is level. We were in on 3/17 for my bday and we asked to move from a booth because it was so wobbly. Today, we were taken to the same wobbly booth and I asked again for another table. Here is the deal - why did it happen twice - I only ask as I am a partner in CMR and I know the training and standards we set out for all of the restaurants - including RBs. Please ensure the tables and chairs are in good working order before opening.

    Excellent restaurant in a great location. Service was outstanding and food was very good. Atmosphere is very fun but also great for families. We went as a party of 7 with 3 kids and were served very quickly. We’ll go back next time we’re in town for sure!
