Beautiful meal. Each dish was delicious and nicely presented. Service was good and the atmosphere is lovely, good for groups or a romantic evening. Standouts are the roasted cauliflower and the salads. Fish and meat perfectly cooked. Highly recommended.

Breakfast buffet with Santa was the best yet this year. I think they simplified it. The cost was less and the menu was simple but everything was tasty (and GF!). My son loves it

We sat at the bar and it was so much fun. Bartender was very attentive and positive about the food and drinks we had chosen. It was just after Thanksgiving, so the place was very quiet. We shared poke, a salad and some fries. All very good.
