    This is my wife and I’s 2nd time there and we got Wesley for the 2nd time and he is what made this restaurant for us. The food is great and the drinks are excellent. Wesley is so friendly and helpful and attentive. He acts more as a friend than a waiter helps get us what we want and makes sure we r happy. He maybe the best waiter we have experienced in Columbus. We will be back again.

    Had friends coming in from out of town and wanted a nice dinner where we could catch up and enjoy dinner. We all ordered different items and we all loved everything. I love the vibe here and the staff is always great. Prices are very reasonable for an upscale feel. Worth every penny!
