Food and service were excellent as always. Blue Soul was playing at the bar which was perfect dinner music and we also stayed for a drink at the bar after. It was a great anniversary. Thank you for the cake!

The fried cauliflower is great. It’s lightly fried and the sauce balances out the dish. We also tried the calamari dish which was one of the specials and was delightfully good. Their pizza is consistently delicious. Crust is crispy and holds up to the toppings. Would highly recommend this place.
