"Jordan, the bartender provided me with excellent service and conversation during my meal. He deserves five stars by himself. I ordered the gnocchi Alfredo with shrimp and it was amazing. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone I know."

"Very good food and great service by Alyssa who did a super job making sure we had a nice Anniversary experience. The issue is that the tables are way too small making it a difficult dining experience. This criticism comes up in a lot of reviews, so ownership is unwilling to do anything about it. I guess it doesn't hurt them enough to deal with it. Too bad, solving it would raise their enjoyment factor.."
