    apparently the place changed ownership a year or more ago. Previously they had great specials, wonderful fish, and nice drinks. I came back because I used to go regularly and they had premade manhattans and/or old fashioned barrels and they were very good. They don't offer those anymore. I wondered why there were so few people there when the restaurant next door had a line out onto the street. The public house used to be difficult to get in, but it appeared they have lost traction.

    The ambience was not festive for this time of year and no music was playing. The drinks were over priced and the food was just okay.

    The food was aggressively mid tier. Sitting in the weird little offshoot dining room was quiet and awkward and VERY bright.

    The food was "ok" but not great, especially for what they were charging. Overcooked the steak which was also supposed to have a chimichurri on it but was more like a "salsa" (definitely not a chimichurri). The server we had was great, friendly, and very attentive, but I would not come back for mediocre food.

    The food was missing flavor and some key ingredients. The burrito was missing the potatoes, the og Benedict tasted like vinegar, the table next to us didn't get their eggs on their meals.

    Right in the heart of Old Town. There are seating inside and outside. Outside happened to have live music that night but we opted to sit inside. Not very many tables as there were outside but it was nice and quiet. Server was friendly and very good.
