The food and service was fantastic. My group of friends enjoyed the baked oysters, fish dip and our entrees were served piping hot. Our waiter was outstanding!

The food was fine. Nothing special. The steak was more Costco quality than butcher quality. The grilled chicken on top of the salad was okay. Didn't sound feel like they used the highest end chicken. The prices are reasonable in today's market. The fish and chips were pretty good. I think they could have used a little less breading, but I think that was the best dish in the group that we got.
