I had the special soup (Sweet Potato And Parsnip Bisque) is was flavorful and rich. Followed by the Medetertian Salad. Love the combination of cool vegies and warm frill polenta. My husband had the coconut shrimp (four big fat ones) and a garden salad-the garden salad is BIG, fresh and crunch. We are regulars here- as you can COUNT on the good service, good food and fair pricing.

Second floor you can feel a vibration especially by the bar area - sitting farther away the vibration lessens. The food was good and quick, wait time was minimal.

We reserved & asked for a booth for 4 , when we arrived there was only a table for 4 but they had sat one couple in our booth for 4 . Not very nice for a regular customer. Please on requests in future when accomodation requested was available

We were seated upstairs in a large open dining room that had no character. It resembled a community center or the church multi-purpose room. Very disappointing atmosphere. Food was fair, nothing exciting or unique. We tried it and will not go back.

Great food! The service was not on point this particular visit. It took a long time for us to get our drinks, and they didn’t have the swordfish that was listed as one of the specials. It was fairly early in the evening, so that was disappointing. Overall, a great local gem.

We ate upstairs and had great service. The menu has many options. I had the ribs which fell off the bone and were so tender. My husband had the bacon burger and said it was great. For dessert the crème brûlée did not disappoint. Great location if you are going to The Kate. Even the performers dined there and loved it. They mentioned it during the show.
