Rehearsal Dinner
WOWZA!! The food, the service and the ambiance was unreal!!! Exceeded all of our expectations! The staff was amazing!!! They were on top of clearing, filling glasses and were quick to execute temperature and volume adjustments. I would highly recommend this place for any private event!!!
