The service was very good and our waitress was very helpful. I found the Lamb to be excellent. The beef tartar I ordered was covered with small black chips. Seemed like a great idea over having crisps on the side. Unfortunately, the chips we're incredibly salty. They had a great beer selection of Stout and IPA as well as wine by the glass. Overall, I would return and recommend this restaurant to others.

Food was great. Appetizer, main and dessert. I was full but not too full. I had the arancini but also sampled the short rib and the duck. Tres leche tiramisu cake was delicious. We were there before it got busy so the noise level was rising by dessert. Coat check was a nice touch. Service attentive and professional.
