Just an overall great time spent there with friends. Everything was excellent. They went over and above to bring my friend a simple garden salad that wasn’t on the menu. Thanks to the chef and staff

We had a great time. The atmosphere was great. You MUST get the duck. It’s their best item in the menu. The cod was good but lacked some taste. Overall would go again and get the Duck for myself and not share it with my gf

All the food and service were excellent as usual. Always the best hospitality by the entire team. Only note for the meal- some of the dishes could have been hotter but may have just been a timing thing since it was busy.
