Two of us were dining and another friend dropped by but the restaurant could not accommodate him by adding another chair saying we had made reservations for only 2 people. That was a bummer! We were almost done dining too so not sure why we couldn't be given an additional space for a few minutes. Food was good, server was good too.

It was our first time there as we are new to the area. The food was wonderful, the mussels were great and we also enjoyed the scallops and Sheppard’s Pie. The ambience was great in the bar with the fire going. Our server Ally was really good and extremely helpful giving us ideas for dinner. It was a wonderful evening and we can’t wait to come back!

Overall a really nice venue, but I think for what they offer the food is not reasonably priced. Regardless the experience was worth it and I'd recommend the drinks, for sure!
