Overall great. I love the new restaurant. It’s not as claustrophobic feeling like the one on Main Street. Very nice and good was great.

I love this neighborhood restaurant. The service today was a bit slow but wow were they busy. Just a nitpick, if I pay $10 for an old fashion I would like to have a proper ice sphere or cube, not bar ice that melts instantly.

Food there is always great. Large portions that could be shared. Have been multiple times without any issues. Most recent visit had some a bit of a problem with service but other than that, one of our favorites

Wonderful service and meal. We were seated in the area right in front of the door so it was a very noisy atmosphere with constant traffic walking by.

We allowed ourselves 45 min to get from Main Street to Andover location…with an accident and traffic it took a little longer…we were 17 minutes late…although we called and let them know of the situation, and said that’s ok, upon arrival we were told they can’t hold reservations for more than 15 minutes and gave our table away….understandable but I feel a little leeway would have been appropriate since we called ahead and it took us an hour to drive 6 miles…
