Great lunch deal. The food was good not great, but the lunch prix fixe more than takes that into account.

Ordered steak medium and it came rare. They refused to give us an extra hot plate to cook it a bit more since it was busy.

Need some kind of sound-absorbing material on the walls...somewhat difficult to carry on a conversation with the noise level...quality of food is ALMOST sufficient to make this a non-issue, but would be much more appealing if one could hear at least some of the other people at their table....however, the noise level will NOT keep us from coming back. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
