My familiy's experience was wonderful. We were greeted and seated promptly. The server was very friendly and attentive. Her service was second to none. All of our food was very delicious. The portions were very generous and we all had enough to take home. It was such a delightful experience, we will most definitely be back.

I’m hoping this was a one time event for this place, not enough help!! One waitress, barmaid and the owner I think. Food and drinks were outstanding but very aggravating when you run out of water and you wanted your wine with your meal, waiting to long for check. Can’t blame the one waitress, also sitting next to the garage door in the winter, not so pleasant even with draft protection. When you pay over $100 for dinner for two, you should not have these issues, again hopefully a one time oddball situation

The food and service were very good. Prices were a little high. As it got busier tho, the noise level was too loud. Also the tables are too close together and hearing people I don’t know talk during dinner wasn’t enjoyable

Hadn’t been here in a few years. We love going out for brunch. The service was good. The food was delicious. The prices were a bit high for the amount and quality of food. The place needs some cosmetic updates particularly the upstairs bathroom. The tables were not level and wobbling which is always unpleasant.

Wife’s birthday dinner. We had our heart set on oysters. We ate at 5pm & told they ran out for the day? Wide open dining room but seated w view into kitchen. Young servers were getting their experience, trying their best, but lacking a bit. Meal wasn’t memorable. (Honestly forgot what I ate). Long Buffalo winter weather slop & poor parking sitch didn’t help. Will give it another try & I’m optimistic will be better.
