    We had a fairly vast swath of the menu overall, the food was extraordinarily bland — flavorless. The fish and lamb were ok, but not spectacular. The barley soup was bizarrely sweet. Potatoes were unseasoned. Bread was cold and dry. The menu didn’t give a sense of ingredients to help gluten or dairy free diners decide. Decent drink menu and good prices. Server was very kind but new in the role didn’t know what to do to address issues.

    Excellent food for a reasonable price and amazing service. It’s the perfect spot for a meal before or after a show at Playhouse

    The noise level was acceptable so that we could converse pleasantly. The menu was interesting, the portions were good, the food was tasty, and the prices were reasonable. The service was very good and the people were pleasant.
