Everything was great, except for where we were sat, which was near a patio door that was continuously opening and was making us cold

Very nice restaurant by the river. Ordered the Ahi Tuna, delicious! Don't forget to accompany it with some Pita Bread.
Also had the Halibut, pretty good. And for the dessert the goat cheesecake, really good too.
Nice place, I'll come back for sure.

Everything we ordered was great - fried goat cheese, Moroccan lamb, lazy paella with shrimp, and the grilled angus beef coulotte. It's great to see restaurants that have been downtown for a while still thriving!
