    The corned beef and potatoes were undercooked. The Mac and cheese just fine. Salads were good. Pizza was good but a bit skimpy on the toppings.

    Very good food. Nice selection. Excellent service. The noise level makes chatting difficult for us older folks. We had a reservation through open table. They honored the reservation despite the fact that people were waiting for tables. Honorable and impressive.

    Great food and excellent service. We made a reservation and were seated immediately upon arrival. The guacamole was fresh and delicious. We ordered the Reuben sandwich and the Pastrami sandwich. Both were well prepared and tasted great. We will be back.
