    Awesome food. Expensive but if you want the best quality and best taste, this is the place. Great place to take a date. Perfect atmosphere.

    Cesar is a great server. The chef's special of Lemon Butter Salmon is the bomb. It is perfectly prepared with the ideal flake. I enjoyed the cup of roasted tomato soup that I started with. .....

    The dos favorites are well worth trying, and are on the low end of the prices.

    Pomegranate Cadillac margarita was so good! Very refreshing and not too sweet.
