- Bradley B.5/25/2025We hosted a milestone birthday for a friend in the private dining room. The staff were fantastic, amazing food, and wonderful ambience. I highly recommend this place for a party. It could not have been a more special evening - the staff really worked hard to make every detail perfect.read moreread less
- Zoraida J.5/24/2025Everything was so tasty and delicious. Calamari was so tender. The server was very pleasant and responsive to our requests, throughout the afternoon.The one thing that was disappointing was the glare of the outside traffic hitting our faces as we were enjoying the food. We asked if the curtains could be drawn, yet were told it was impossible. If that could have been have done that for us, it would have been a perfect late afternoon dinner.read moreread less
