We were seated in an outside covered patio, while it had heaters it was freezing! The service was terrible, the food was not hot. I’ve dined here before but will not return .

Great food and service, though due to the wedding in the back room we ended up in the converted outdoor area, That said, we had a fabulous meal with great service. Happy hour at the nice warm bar was amazing.

Considering that we visited on Thanksgiving, it was somewhat noisier than usual and the service was under par, which had to do with one server who seemed socially awkward, forgetful, and not the sharpest tool in the drawer. The food, however, was as fresh and tasty as I’ve come to expect, so I’ll be back.
