The service here was excellent. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful, and the restaurant has a nice, comfortable atmosphere.Unfortunately, the food was a disappointment. My wife ordered the barbecue chicken and I ordered the barbecue pork, and both of our meals came out cold. Given the very high reviews this restaurant has, I’d like to think we may have simply caught them on a bad day or that there was an issue with the food preparation or holding temperature that day.That said, based on our experience, the food quality did not match the price or the reputation. We really appreciated the great service and enjoyed the atmosphere, but unfortunately, we would not return.
