    There was 2 of us and we went for my belated birthday dinner. My wife had the salmon which was superb and I had the stuff chicken which was Devine. Our appetizers were the spicy dip and the spicy deep fried shrimp which also were amazing. We left enough room for desert as well Raspberry sorbet and donut holes- just hit the spot. They had music from a local person who did a amazing job not too loud abd a great background to relax and unwind. We will be going away more rhings on the menu to discover!
