    This was a great pre-theater dinner. Apps and drinks were great, and so was dinner. Enough options to satisfy all! The pre-fixe theater menu was lacking hard so we went with the regular menu and specials. Meatballs were delish, and we both got fist and veg that were super tasty. Cocktails were yummy! Will go back!

    We chose the restaurant as it was accessible from our hotel on a really cold night and reviews seemed good. The space was nicely decorated and comfortable with a lively atmosphere. The waiter was efficient and cordial. Our drinks were excellent and we found the food to be so as well. We shared an order of the cheese curds with rémoulade to start; it was a generous portion indeed and delectable. I had an excellent prime rib done perfectly medium rare with a beautiful and tasty crust with mashed potatoes, jus and horseradish, which I was unable to finish. My companion had the rotisserie chicken which he declared to be nicely seasoned and moist. Again, it was a generous portion of half chicken, baby potatoes and baby carrots. We had no space left for dessert, but enjoyed the meal thoroughly.

    Food was good but not fantastic. The service was very good - attentive but not overly so. The ambience was nice (booth is a little skinny and no one was “bigger” in our group but if my tall husband and son were there, the booth would not have worked) We were going to the theatre and the waiter was very good about is being in at 5:15 and out by 6:30.
