    The food was so fresh, delicious, well prepared and had fabulous ingredients. The staff couldn't have made things better - they were friendly, helpful, and responsive without being overbearing. The booth made it feel like a private room just for us. The only thing I would have liked was a menu - having a tablet on the wall was handy, but it did mean we had to search for the menu on our phones to understand what we wanted and get the person closest to put it in. We didn't ask for a menu though so that could have absolutely made the difference. Regardless, the quality, price and service received means I could have put it through on carrier pigeon and still would want to come back.
