My Wife and I had been wanting to eat here for a long time after hearing so many good things. We were not disappointed. I had the fried chicken which was delicious and my Wife had the steak which was equally good. Service was the best I have had in a long time. I mean these people REALLY hustle! There are a couple of reasons I didn't give 5 stars. First my Wife's steak was only luke warm. Second was the noise level. It is ridiculously loud. And third our table was in the middle of the room and ironically the staff hustling a... read more

I have to say the food is generally good. I had the Fried Chicken and it was great. My wife had the Salmon and it was just ok. Really the thing i dislike about this place is the noise level. Its defening. Several times we were saying "what...what..." to both the waitress and ourselves. To boot we had the table right by the door on a chilly fall evening. Its the worst table to have. People are waiting for tables right by you. I really, really want to like this place but I have to be able to carry on a normal conversation wher... read more

Great food. Little too noisy,but over-all not bad. Not a place for a romantic dinner. More so a "hang-out" place. Silence is golden.And people, please keep your crying children at home.�
