Wait to get in was very short, Monday must be a great day to visit this restaurant. The food is consistent and service attentive. Things have changed over the years, no more white table cloths. Food was generous and flavorful, prepared properly, and above average ... not elevated. Still, enjoyed the meal and surroundings, it's always a great place for a business meeting or special event. Thank you!
