    We chose the restaurant as it was accessible from our hotel on a really cold night and reviews seemed good. The space was nicely decorated and comfortable with a lively atmosphere. The waiter was efficient and cordial. Our drinks were excellent and we found the food to be so as well. We shared an order of the cheese curds with rémoulade to start; it was a generous portion indeed and delectable. I had an excellent prime rib done perfectly medium rare with a beautiful and tasty crust with mashed potatoes, jus and horseradish, which I was unable to finish. My companion had the rotisserie chicken which he declared to be nicely seasoned and moist. Again, it was a generous portion of half chicken, baby potatoes and baby carrots. We had no space left for dessert, but enjoyed the meal thoroughly.

    Great food (I want to specifically call out how great the octopus is) and a great environment (especially for a casual quiet dinner catching up with old friends). This was my second time having Brian as a server, and his recommendations on new (since my last visit) food items and cocktails was great. Brian remembered me and made some suggestions based on my prior visit as well. Stellar service and I hope I get Brian as a server again in the future.
