    The three of us had a wonderful dinner, beverages were delicious, mains were good. My mother had the lemoncello shrimp and she said it was really good, but she didn’t taste very much lemon flavor if at all. That would be my only negative from the whole night. I will definitely be back!

    I love when you are greeted and seated with professionalism. The waitress suggested some great choices. I choose the Brussel Sprout salad, it was large and wonderful. I didn't think I could eat the whole thing, but I did. My friend enjoyed her burger, the fries were good too. Since it wasn't too crowded, we were able to sit and relax. Thanks for a great afternoon.

    We had a big group and the restaurant gave us the best side room/ area. Cozy and semi-private, yet still sitting where we could see the bar or look out windows - perfect for a group of 8-10. The seasonal drinks are great and the server was excellent.
