    Everything was awesome except that both our meals were exceptionally slaty. Butternut squash risotto and scallops and the Salmon dish. It wont stop us from coming again as we have always thought the food was excellent. Thiswas just a one-off.

    Overall a good experience. Food was good and drinks were delicious. Waitress was incredibly nice, but service was way, way, way too slow to get the things we wanted- it seemed that maybe she was in charge of too many tables which obviously would not be her fault. We sat down at 6:45 and didn’t get our drinks until 7:20. We didn’t leave the restaurant until 9:45 even though we were ready with our order choices each time the waitress came around. The ambiance upstairs is not very nice compared to downstairs. While we were overall satisfied with the meal, we expected a little bit better experience considering the cost of the meal
