    Food good service a bit spotty -was asked to move tables part way through dinner (no problem we did) but for no apparent reason, to a rocky table that someone had moved from. Seemed rushed with lots of apologies

    We like this place a lot. Reasonable prices. Good selection of food. Quantities are also good. Disappointed a bit in their kids menu. It’s the same food they give to adults - even the chicken in the quesadilla was spicy which I found a bit surprising.

    Always a fun time with colleagues. Especially love the two outdoor patios at this time of year. Wilson and his crew are always lovely, as this is an every two week venture for our group!
