    The menu is creative and we were very excited to sample a number of small plates and apps; sadly they couldn't execute. I like the dining room's aesthetic, and while we were there, a duo performed music. It was loud but not overwhelming to us. We are not beer drinkers so I can't comment on the selection or quality of the brews, but the cocktails were delicious.

    Fantastic evening. Dirty Goose Martinis were great alongside our crab cake appetizer. We ordered a Caesar salad which was absolutely the best followed by a filet, a ribeye, and lobster tail. Sides we ordered were creamed, spinach, and sweet potato casserole. Everything was decadent and so flavorful. Wonderful spot to grab a quick drink in a beautiful upscale atmosphere and out of this world cuisine. The only negative I have is one ordering, my husband asked for the lobster bisque and a totally different waitress had come over at this point and said she would recommend not getting it. It is the number one returned item… We found that a little odd that she would actually say that. Of course, he didn’t order it and got something else but, What if he liked it?.. I asked why she was taking our order because she wasn’t our original waitress and she said they all help each other, which is great, but I tend to think our original waitress wouldn’t have been so blunt and how it was said. Nonetheless, we had a great time but still wonder about that lobster bisque and if we would have liked it .
