    My sister and I shared a kale salad and maple glazed salmon. Both were EXCELLENT! The vegetables and salmon were cooked perfectly. Everything tasted fresh and the presentation was appetizing. We loved the piano player in the bar area. Can’t wait to come back and try other things on the menu!!!

    Food was mediocre at best. No charm to restaurant. Service was very good. Went here on Easter 2024. Same experience thought I’d give it a second chance. But this is it won’t bother again.

    We unfortunately came on a busy night and experienced terrible service from our server. Wait times for simple items were unreasonable. 40 minutes for a child’s lemonade? And his attitude sealed the deal. He acted like we were in the wrong to say anything or ask status of things. Serving sizes were also pretty small, especially for the price.

    The food was good but the service was awful. Our server seemed appalled and pushed back when we asked that he split the tab 3 ways for 7 people having dinner together. It’s been >20 years since I was here last, and I will never return. What a shame.

    We’ve come here for years - the place looked shabbier this time. Our server was initially brusque but then attended to everything we needed. My veggie scramble was definitely suffering from shrinkflation. My husband thought his monte cristo should have included turkey. But overall a positive experience. You cant beat this location so close to the airport.

    Great (and huge amounts) of food. My waiter recommended the Reuben with a mix of pastrami and corned beef (great call). They have a very reasonable corkage fee ($15). Mondays - live jazz/jam band. Great times!

    ordered turkey dinner. turkey was not fresh but ok, stuffing was terrible, corned beef dinner was rejected then ordered fajitas plate which was good. I expected a really good turkey dinner and some music, didnt happen. ordered potato salad instead of mashed potato. potato salad is always great. cranberry sauce was really good.
