    An amazing once in a lifetime experience. Jeff Campbell and waitress Rosie, were a fabulous team. The food was incredible and the wines were sensational. Jeff’s delivery and description of each course was wonderful and informative. Rosie ensured there was never an empty glass and cleared and delivered seamlessly. I never entered the kitchen once and it was spotless at the end of the night. I loved not having to clean up, and being able to sit back and enjoy the food and company without stress, was priceless.
