    Great job by our server Kiley. The beef stroganoff was excellent, as was the salmon. Highly recommend.

    Food is god, but not good enough to justify the high prices. Also, tipping is out of hnd when the bill is resented with an "automatic" 225% tip IF you don't pay attention. Pay your staff an adequate wage and tips can stay at 18%.

    We like to sit in the bar and Morgan is our bartender most weeks. She does an excellent job managing the entire bar and makes everyone feel welcome. Food is always excellent. Happy hour prices are outstanding value.
