We had our rehearsal dinner here on the private patio and loved it! The food was great and the private patio provided a nice intimate ambiance for our closest family and friends. Looking forward to going back!

Kathy was the best! It rained all day on our wedding day and she was all over getting our room switched indoors. The food and service were exceptional.

Kathy Reck the manager was very nice, patient and just down to earth. we originally told her we were looking at about 40 people, it doubled as time got closer. we rented the back room downstairs with the patio. i've dined at this place before, so i knew the food was good and good quality. during our tasting, my now husband was blown away and we were beyond stuffed. EVERY single one of our guests raved about the food. i had some people drop off my decorations earlier in the day, Kathy's team did an amazing job in setting it all up properly. i was in awe when i finally the finished room after our grand entrance. the only reason i gave a couple lower stars was because there was a few hiccups. some of our guests had figured a way into the room during cocktail hour, which we didnt want. my now mother-in-law approached me during dinner saying my oldest son (almost 2 at the time) hadn't gotten his food and she had asked 3 times. so i ventured off to find our head waiter, he was very nice and apologetic. but i was annoyed that it was MY son's order that fell through the cracks. i felt like after dinner the wait staff kept asking me if i needed anything when i didn't, but i had to track one down when i needed a new drink. not a huge ding for that though, because my perception of what happened and what really happened im sure are a little different than how i remember. im not sure if it was told by the wait staff about our open bar for beer and wine. i had informed some of my friends previously, so they couldnt answer that question. we ended up not hitting our room minimum, but obviously still had to pay it. the last thing was the cake. i ordered a 3 tier cake with a back up sheet. they cut the pieces so tiny that only 2 tiers got used. overall we were very happy with our experience. our guests RAVED about this place as well, saying how awesome it is.

We had our rehearsal dinner here and invited all of our wedding guests since it was a location wedding. The restaurant has several large spaces available for groups to rent and so we were able to have a private party on their large downstairs patio with our own buffet/passed apps. We had an open bar and three waves of food. The price as about $100/head and the wine flowed liberally but I don't think there was ultimately enough food considering how much we paid. Also, while the restaurant has an amazing menu, the options for the group buffet were no where near as good or as creative. I recommend this place because overall we had a great experience but be warned the food is not quite what it should be.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
