Last week, you celebrated your birthday with some friends in a restaurant. It was a great success and you and your friends enjoyed yourselves very much. Write a letter to the restaurant. In your letter mention the food and service explain that you really enjoyed the atmosphere suggest any improvements to make things better

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to thank you for providing your best services during my birthday celebrations
last
week at your restaurant. We had a great time at your place. I especially need to mention the food and service. All items on the buffet menu were fresh and delicious. Your staff quickly refilled all the delicacies as it got over. The BBQ and cocktails counters were faster and tastier.
Also
, I must appreciate the live music band.
Initially
, I thought the music crew was a bit older;
however
, they proved me wrong. They kept the evening atmosphere vibrant and enjoyable. They
also
politely accommodated all guest's song requests. My suggestions for any improvement would be on the price and adding an outdoor seating area to make things better. I found the bar menu to be on the higher side. If
this
can be slightly reduced,
then
it could be welcoming for many guests.
Also
, an outdoor seating area will be enjoyed by couples as they may enjoy privacy and a quiet place.
