We went to the old pearl frequently and the food and service were getting worse with each visit so I was super hesitant to take my family back Friday night. We were SO surprised. The food, drink, and service were wonderful. The new layout is awesome with the small stage in the center. The night we went was a live jazz band with a piano and singer. We loved the background music and it wasn't too loud. Darryl did an excellent job serving. We left raving about it. Only regret is no brown rice.
