    Waitress forgot to bring our wine and couldn't remember what we ordered as "I didn't write it down". Check brought out without request or asking if we wanted coffee or a liqueur. Bar bill cannot be transferred to restaurant. Shame. Great food and venue but seems to be badly managed.

    Been going here for quite some time, the drinks were very weak, that was very disappointing, spoke with our server and she told us that the bartender were told to pour weaker drink that they are cracking down on the measures. For the amount of money they charge, that is very discouraging. Also, they have stopped giving complimentary dessert for birthdays and anniversaries. I feel like it is going downhill.
