5he food was great and the sevice as well! I did notice the last few times we were here in May and September it does not seem to draw a crowd. We went on a weeknight in May and this last Sunday. Maybe include the complimentary bread,a soup, or salad. Other than that food was great.

    I had the steak recommended by our waitress Jill and my wife had the Salmon. We started with the crab cakes which were wonderful as well as the salad greens. We sat on the patio and it was a perfect evening. We had desert as well even though we were full from our perfectly prepared meals. We went over the the waterfall for some pictures afterwards. It was a surprise dinner for my wife, it was our 33rd anniversary and she was totally delighted by the whole experience! We’ll definitely be back.
