We were given a wonderful booth seating that kept things pleasantly quiet. It was well worth any awkwardness in getting in and out of the middle if the bench. Our waiter gave excellent service. I believe his name was Justin. Food restrictions were handled admirably by kitchen manager Nigel. The only thing I could wish for is lower prices so we could go more often!
