Voicemail, Valentine's Day and more...

I'd like to start off by thanking everyone for their support for making our Grand Opening weekend last week such a success. We were packed every night Thursday through Saturday and I think we were able to accomodate nearly everyone, both reservations and walkins, with only some minor bumps. Thanks to everyone for being patient. One thing somehow that got missed was the large number of voicemails which piled up in our voicemail box. We didn't realize that so many calls got missed on Thursday and Friday, and actually caused our voicemailbox for this week to be full. I have been going through the voicemails and will be returning the calls of everyone who is still needing a reservation for a later date. I think in the heat of the battle we were not able to answer the phone very much as we were very busy making sure everything went smoothly. We did answer the phone a lot and took many reservations, so I hope everyone can understand that the volume of calls was simply more than we could answer and/or return. We do take walkins so don't think that just because you don't get through for a reservation that you will not be able to come to Sol!

Managing a blend of reservations and walkins is difficult, but we are trying very hard as we feel that offering reservations is something many people appreciate.

We will be offering a special Valentine's Day package that includes choice of entrees, appetizer, salad, dessert and a glass of champagne. It is tailored to couples, and will be priced between $60-75 a couple. As soon as we finalize the details we will post it here. We are taking reservations for Valentines Day now.

Last night was another smooth night and we'd like to put a special thanks out to Tony from Tony's bar for his encouraging words and to Jess and Jason from Fluff Bakery for the yummy donuts they brought over to us after their meal. They were thankfully gobbled up by all of the staff.

Hope to see you all soon at Sol!
