    Excellent food and atmosphere. Very friendly wait staff, but overall poor service. Food was served lukewarm warm, received one incorrect entree, no coffee refills offered. So much potential if properly staffed/trained.

    They stuck us at the worst table, had a missing shade on light above so was sooooo bright, by the window first room, and because we were in no man’s land we rarely saw our server.

    Short ribs were superb. Craft cocktails not so much. New bartender was struggling. Outstanding service. It is quite loud, but that didn’t bother us too much as we were in a corner.
