    Everything was perfect. From the moment we walked in the front door. The hostess was very professional and friendly and welcoming. The manager was very attentive and decanted our bottle of Cabernet with care.  our server was exceptional and took very good care of us. It was a wonderful experience and I will definitely go again. I especially look forward to their next Wine dinner. Thank you to the manager and the staff for a lovely evening.
