Food was absolutely delicious and prepared to our specifications. Presentation was appealing. Portions were just right. Ample options for the vegetarians in the party. Lesser known cocktail was made exactly as anticipated. Wait staff was attentive without being overbearing. Timing was perfect allowing us to eat leisurely while still making our show in plenty of time. Can't wait to return with carnivorous companions to sample the meat selections on the menu. Online reservations were easy even with making a later modification.
Liked: Ample room at table. Surrounding patrons were not disturbing. Restrooms were easily accessible. Liked that proper Covid protocol was followed with great respect. All staff were gracious and accommodating in allowing us time to read menu and in making recommendations.
Disliked: Not anything I can think of.
