    Went to celebrate our 5th Anniversary. Everything was excellent from our greeting, sat quickly(reservation), a wonderful greeting card on our table, to the food and service by Mamodou(our server). He was pleasant, helpful with suggestions and stayed on top of our needs w/o being intrusive. My wife was very pleased.

    Decided to try the Wago Burger/Wine special in the bar area. The burger was just OK, the wine much better. As always, when you don't sit at the bar and in a booth, you can get forgotten. Blame it on staffing.
