    They closed the kitchen an hour early. When I arrived told me I could only have pizza. Reluctantly ordered a pizza. Crust was burnt—vegetables were raw. Really disappointing experience.

    We had great food and great service. However, there was no table available when we arrived, even though we had a reservation. We had tickets for the RPO, so we opted to eat at the bar rather than wait for one. It was ok, but not the ambiance that a table would have afforded us.
