One of my favorite places to eat, located about 20 minutes West of the home. I highly recommend anything on the menu, I have yet to hear a negative review. The pricing, quality and ambiance are top notch. It's located in the Village Pointe mall area, directly across from the movie theatre if you should want to make an evening out of it.
