| - Loved this place!
My friend who is a local suggested that I stop in for their happy hour (seems like happy hours are a big deal in the Valley of the Sun as everyone goes to one!)
We got here early and were practically the only ones in the place on this Monday night. So we took a seat at the bar, where we were taken excellent care of by John,bartender extrodinaire!
My martini was perfectly poured and I liked that there was a little "dividend" left over which quickly made it's way into my glass. We liked the bar so much we decided to settle in and enjoy our dinner there and John made sure that our entire experience was a nice as had we been sitting at one of the tables.
While there are plenty of happy hour specials we ended up going off the dinner menu as they had soft shelled crabs which are my favorite and my friend wanted steak. For our appetizer we had some fresh oysters which were delicious as well as one of the happy hour specials. Our food was delicious and perfectly prepared, and everyone we met was so welcoming and inviting.
In fact, we even got a tour of the entire place by Nick, the manager, who really went out of his way to show us the open kitchen, the glassed in booths that surround it, and several large rooms that would be perfect for hosting your next special gathering.
While I don't live in the area, you can bet I have told all my friends who do, to stop in and check this place out. The ambiance is lovely (I loved the windowed room off the bar), the staff is well trained, efficient and friendly, and the food tops it all.
Check it out! I know I will be back the next time I am in town!
