Perfect experience all around! Molly B was incredibly service-oriented, and so were her colleagues. They even surprised us with a complimentary cake bite for our friend’s birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was perfect and everything came out fresh and delicious. Great service, great atmosphere, and great attention to detail. We’ll definitely be back!
