We had a cousin holiday lunch and chose this location as many years ago our Aunt used to bring us here. We had a great time and would have loved to sit by the fire!

went on a Saturday afternoon before a show at the Music Hall. We had made reservations and were seated promptly. The place was busy due to the weekend show but service was quick, the food was hot and prices were good. We both enjoyed a cocktail and loved the huge roaring fireplace.
