Note: Wendy held a surprise Birthday Party (for 20 people) for Tom at this restaurant. One of the owners developed a menu in advance and allowed a birthday cake to be brought in and served. The night was done wonderfully. The food was excellent, the service was great and the management went out of their way to make sure everything went well. |
