DISH FROM DINERS: “We accidentally ate at this place because (another restaurant) was closed on Sunday. I guess everything happens for a reason because everything was awesome. The service was top-notch, and our waiter explained almost everything on the menu and had several recommendations. The drinks were great. The bartender Greg even came to our table and customized drinks for my wife and I. Overall great experience!”
