    We had a reservation for eight for lunch. We had great service w/ friendly staff, & delicious food. The only downside was we were sitting close to the door so we were blasted with cold air every time somebody came in and out.

    This was my first time visiting this restaurant--my sister and I brought my dad here for his birthday dinner. We sat upstairs right next to a window overlooking the street. The food was delicious, reasonably-priced, and service was great!
