    Ordered French onion soup. Felt and tasted as if it were sitting out a while. Not warm. Remaining orders felt hurried and somewhat bland. Very crowded and loud. This location used to have much better food and service. We used to look forward to eating here but now it’s just another place. Unlikely to return

    A great evening to celebrate a birthday and feel special. The service was excellent, the food was tasty and the decor is perfect. Only negative is the ridiculous 3% charge for using a credit card. That is just so maddening. Unlikely we will go back to those restaurants that do that.
