Spent my birthday on 1-30-26 dinning at Splash. What an amazing experience. They made it so special. I had Chilean seabass,mashed sweet potatos,and rossotto. The chef is so spot on with everything. The service was caring and excellent. Absolutely best place ever. Thank you for the experience.

I’ve been in the service industry for years (as have 75% of our party) and we are all typically very understanding and patient with service.

We came here for our anniversary.
