    Had a wonderful anniversary dinner at one of our go to places. Excellent service by David which started off with a glass of champagne on the house. Very classy gesture followed by relaxing dinner. The place was packed for a Monday night and suggest to make reservations. Won’t be disappointed

    The food was good, especially the clam chowder. The server was pleasant, engaging but got my entree wrong. The location of the restaurant was discouraging as it was on a dark street where it was the only business open.

    What a charming spot in an offbeat area! We were greeted immediately, and though the menu and payment were through a QR code, we still received attention from our multiple employees, and the menus were still conveniently printed for reference. All our dishes were delicious and charmingly presented. I loved the balance of meat, vegetarian and vegan dishes. I'd love to return during the day and enjoy the patio.
