    Very small table for 4 people. Food was okay this time. The poke bowl rice was half cooked it’s not what I expected but the server was happy to replace it. The Waitress not paying attention when the plates are needed to be removed from the table.

    It was a very busy evening in the restaurant. We had a reservation but were seated in the bar area. I didn’t expect to have to request dining room. Very loud, unable to hear each other without shouting The wings and toffee pudding were the best things we had. Fish tacos, rigatoni, were mediocre and the salmon and chicken at our table were dry and over done. Service was fair.
