Amazing food & Staff

The food was amazing, the service & staff went above and beyond!! Our guest count was over 200 and we decided to go with the plated meal option. The staff was very accommodating to all of our guests dietary restrictions including gluten free meals and requests for sauce of the side. Would highly recommend for any event!
