My family and I had dinner here one night this week. The wait staff accidentally messed up one of our orders. Hey, it happens. We are all human. However they were extremely apologetic and went above and beyond to accommodate us due to the mishap. Everyone was friendly and polite. Our meals were delicious! We will definitely be back!
