Everything was great. The service paced the meal to our liking which was great, didn't feel rushed. It was a nice, busy atmosphere without being too loud. All staff was attentive and kept our table clean and well watered. Food was of course great. Perfect place to hit before a show.

I really hate going out and spending $100 or more on a special date night only to have the food be awful. This is the first place I've been too where I feel like our meal was 100% worth the price. Everything was delicious! I can't wait to go again.
