We had the most wonderful time with the most incredible views, and our server, Tic was so much fun! The young ladies at the front desk need to check their attitudes when checking us in. Other than that one snafu, it was wonderful!

This was my first time at DK and I loved the taste and quality of the food. It’s a great date night restaurant! Jason was our server and he was incredibly attentive and recommended all the great items on the menu. I ordered the carpaccio, brussels, steak and catch of the day. Everything was so good, I can’t wait to come back!
