My husband and I had dinner on 12-29-15 arrived around 7:00 pm. Service was great. Drinks and bread were prompt. Apps were great. We had the parm chicken and the Alice rose chicken. Both were so over cooked they were bone dry. The waiter asked if we enjoyed everything, all was great except the chicken, again we told him we understand it was not him the service was great. Then Ashley one of the managers came to our table very professional and comp'd the dishes even though we did not expect that. She and the waiter should get an atta boy for their professional actions.
Thank You we will be back
