    Absolute gem of a place. The views are absolutely top notch, and the food and service match every time. Went there to celebrate a few things including a new job, and it’s the little things in life that count. The hostess paid attention while walking us to the table. Told the other staff, and the result came written in chocolate. I always recommend this spot and will continue doing so.

    This was a great experience , I did my marriage proposal💍 on this night, the manager Mandy was exceptional, they were very accommodating , She called me in regards to my food allergies and the Chef was able to accommodate me with a personally prepared dish 🍽️ which was Chefs kiss.. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want a classy chic atmosphere. The lighting🕯️ is romantic and the decor reminds me of sitting in candlelight next to a fireplace. You would be very surprised when you step into the location. The waiter was very attentive , staff was supportive as well. It’s was an all around great dining experience!!!
