We reserved a table for 6 several months ahead and were looking very forward to our evening as had heard great things.

We had reservations for 10:15pm on a Sunday and people were still spilling out the door. The tiny bar inside couldn't handle the amount of people waiting. Our service was two sided, our first waiter and the manager were awesome. Our waiter got switched to tables downstairs but still came up to check on us. The manager checked on us... more
