We had the Thanksgiving set menu, which was delicious. We sat outside, and the table was comfortable and quiet. The outside area is in the back of the restaurant, so there is no sidewalk traffic.

Dining here before the Bonnie raitt concert. Reservations at 6. A little slow to be seated and seemed a little disorganized for seating when a crush of walk ins arrived. … but once seated, servers were doing a good job of handling the rush crowd. Food was good. We enjoyed our meal. And boy is it nice to just walk across the street to the concert. I would come here again.

Great food and service. We had the bacon burger- super JUICY. The French fries and onion rings were perfect. The wings were a little undercooked but overall great experience
