Helpful staff, nice atmosphere and the room upstairs is light and comfortable. The food came out right on time and was just what we asked for. And the minimum spend isn’t too high. In general it was excellent and we had a great time. Thank you

Nothing!

Staff was really helpful and people love the food and place

Maybe something that should be advised is that not kids are allow after certain hours even if it is a private event, it was very disappointing to have friends turn back because the kids were not allow after 6pm
