We were a party of two, unsure of what to expect. Of course we decided to go the evening of the town St Paddy’s Day parade so all of the bars were excessively packed and loud. (Take that rating under consideration). We weren’t expecting a lot upon first sitting down, but boy were we pleasantly surprised. From the Caesar Salad to the filet mignon and everything in between (including the mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts).. it was all delicious!
