    From the moment valet parked our car to the second we paid the bill, the service was superb. The food and atmosphere were amazing. The server who had only been there for 3 weeks was very well versed in all the items and made fabulous recommendations! The swordfish risotto and jalapeño glazed grouper were tasty! And the tater tots were not your normal tots, but oh so delish! 10/10
