    We had gone here several times and had really fun family experiences. However the place has become very run down. Seating is falling apart! I thought several cuts of meat weren’t fresh. I don’t think we will go back, and that’s a shame.

    Came at a busy time so taking that into consideration. Initial service was rocky as food was coming out of order and sparingly but our server was great and things got back on track and from there, service was great. Food was excellent and overall ambiance was enjoyable. Will definitely be back!

    I went to this restaurant yesterday with my mom and my 2 year old son, I reserved a 4 people table before I went there, when I got there, the host told me to wait, I said I see many tables available why can’t we just sit there? She said the table section is not open yet. After the long wait, I told her one of my friend is on his way, then she take me to the table right away, after I sit in, there are two people sitting next to me with a 4 people table?? That’s why I got so angry about. You made me wait for a 2 people table instead of a 4people table for so long, Why the other 2 people get a 4 people table size, but my mom, my son and me can not? That is very inappropriate and discriminatory treatment for you guests!

    Really liked the service here. The waiters are spot on and you wouldn't need to wait too long to be catered too. Note: you do need a little bit of experience when it comes to cooking. The waiters were helpful in giving you cooking times for the meat they bring out, but you also need to know when the meats are decently cooked. Otherwise, you'll either have burnt or undercooked. Atmosphere was fun so. All in all. It was good service.
