Went on a Sunday, bartenders cared more about the football game than serving customers. Beer menu link was broken and server had no clue what type of beer they served. Don't waist your money here, too many other choices in Old Town!

Excellent food (I had the mussels) and staff. A bit loud but it’s a sports bar. Limited beer selection upstairs, but still good choices.

I made the mistake of ordering French dishes at basically a sports bar. The onion soup was watery and terrible. Their specialty, mussels, was tasteless. The mussels themselves were fine, but the classic sauce was bland.

Terrible experience! This is by far the worst restaurant experience. The server was tired, the drinks were late, the entrees served before the appetizers, the hanger steaks were cold, the burgers not cooked to what was ordered, no spoons for the French Onion Soup. When asked to speak with the manager, we were told that we would have to get up from our chairs and venture over to where the manager was. I can’t make this stuff up. We won’t be returning to this establishment.

I took my 3 adult children here on a Friday night. We had a reservation at 7 pm. They seated my 2 older kids while I was about 15 minutes late, due an Amtrak delay. Dinner was very good. The windows were open and vibe was really fun. The wine list was excellent, as was the draft beer list. My only complaint was the background music - it was incredibly loud - much louder than it needed to be to create a “buzzy” atmosphere.
