    Have family in from Ireland and so we made a reservation for 5:45 for 5 people with various tastes in food. We had the most delightful patient waitress great disposition, happy to be there !!! That says a lot right there. The girls had a special cocktail that they just loved, we had a few questions about the menu and our waitress was confident in her answers ! Also a huge plus. We had just excellent service, delicious food a warm comfortable atmosphere and it restored our faith in good service ! A time when people were happy to be at work and confident in the food they were delivering ! I think that all shows a great Team effort ! Their was a younger hostess that seemed to miss the memo, but we didn’t let her energy bring us down

    This was a very delightful stop last night! The vibe was great and I loved the decor. The server was friendly and helpful. She recommended an upsell that was great with the tuna caviar tartare. Drinks were well made and tasty. I would definitely recommend stopping in if you’re in the neighborhood for an appetizer and a drink.
