"Lovely place.
Lindsay was excellent and very attentive!!
Food was delicious and great portions. However we were surprised by a charge on the bill for Table games for the tablet at the table.
We did not see anything anywhere that said there would be a charge for " Table Games", if we missed a clear sign in the restaurant or menu, we apologize but we did not see it.... the charge got us this time but it won't get us again."

"Overall, everything was ok.
I didn't enjoy the musty carpet smell in the restaurant, but the overall atmosphere was clean and orderly.
I am a very intuitive person. There were 3 young ladies at the hostess stand when we arrived, so even though we were greeted warmly, it seemed as though neither of them wanted to seat us. It looked as though they were trying to figure out who was going to seat this family who didn't look like them.
This may not have been the case, but that is how it appeared to me.
One of the ladies finally seated us, and we ordered.
The salad is always on point.
The bread sticks were a little hard, but good.
I ordered chicken scampi which was good, but not mind blowing. I was not able to finish it, so I got it to go.
That chicken scampi tasted so much better the next day!"

"Bread sticks weren't great.
All the sea food in my seafood Alfredo were over cooked and nearly crispy.
Waitress wasn't bad. She was busy, definitely appeared understaffed and she was struggling but she did what she could and we appreciate her for that.
But the food is what will make me not return."
