Worst customer service ever. Has a group of 10. Refused to give us a table. Wanted to seat us in outside bar top tables where I couldn’t even sit with my family of 4. Asked for a free table, and there were available, she refused. Screw this place

Nice menu choices. Many options and they will work with dietary needs. Desserts look tasty (haven’t tried any of them yet). Small dinning area but the bar and lounge looked promising.
