This is a great place for a cozy group or out-of-town guests. The atmosphere is lovely, and the noise level not bad. We had a corner table for two in the front room upstairs, and it was not hard to carry on a conversation. The menu offers a wide variety of proteins, and the portions are good.

Wonderful neighborhood gem. The atmosphere is unusual and perfect while the staff is amiable and helpful. Highly recommend trying this restaurant and making a fun go to pub stop. Food is not your average so must be open minded. Cocktails were spot on.
