    We had a party of 5 and each enjoyed a cocktail and split a bottle of wine. All of the drinks were excellent! We all tried something different off the menu and all of the dishes were outstanding. Ambiance was cozy and nice. The most impressive part of the evening was the service, our server was funny, knowledgeable, professional, and efficient. He went into great depth helping us understand menu options, ingredients, etc.. May have been the best service I've ever experienced and I've traveled extensively and dine out several times a week.. absolutely outstanding service and the overall experience was wonderful. Highly recommend.
