Dinning room seemed a little too crowded. Person at table next to one of us was too close. Service was good especially Constantinos. Notwithstanding that the restaurant was crowded and he was busy, he made us feel welcome and was responsive to questions and requests for minor changes in the menu. The asparagus risotto was especially good.

This is not a Sports Bar. It is far better even than Gastropub. This is a higher end restaurant with a welcoming bar scene. It is a go-to for good food in a lively social environment.
