Food was excellent and the service was top tier. The waitress was very attentive and friendly, and seated us next to the fireplace when the patrons left. That was a nice touch because it was snowing, outside, so the fireplace made the ambience nice and cozy.

We celebrated my birthday here. We came early as we like early dinners (yes we are older!), so we had great service! The bartender made us a drink even though technically the bar wasn’t quite open. Enjoyed our food, drinks and ambiance!
