We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience for Mother’s Day. Our server, Cassandra was friendly and gave us great service. She answered food questions easily and gave us a description of what the building was used for in the past. We enjoyed our chat with her and appreciated the attention she paid to our service in a busy holiday. The food was excellent - one of us had the ling cod dinner special and the other diner had the short ribs. Both meals were prepared perfectly with nice amounts of side vegetables as well. We will return! Thank you!

Everything was great but we were seated by the door to the outside seating. It was a cool and windy day and by the time we left we were chilled to the bone even though the door was partially closed for the most part

It’s a beautiful location. Food was excellent and service was amazing. We had a gift certificate from a dear friend and it was a wonderful evening. They were busy because of Mother’s Day weekend. Excellent experience from all staff.

Pork belly and scallops were outstanding. Scallops and prawns pasta and ceasar salad also delicious. Exceptional service. Only downside is the noise level. Really hard to have a conversation.

I have eaten here several times before and enjoyed it thoroughly. Last night was disappointing. Steak was so gristly, it was inedible. Gnocchi was more like bread than pasta. The server was great and trying to make things right, but I’m not sure I’ll go back any time soon. The crème brûlée, appetizers, and martinis were delicious….

The food was so much better than a few years ago. Every person at our table of six enjoyed their meal and thought it was very good. I had the prawn and scallop pasta and it was so amazing and not too heavy. Service was friendly by James and professional.

Our server was fantastic (I didn’t catch her name - she had beaded earrings though) and the food was great. My husband’s eggs were not how he wanted them however he still enjoyed his meal. It got louder as more people arrived however I would definitely recommend!
