    The restaurant was understaffed for a weekend night so service was slow. The arancini appetizers were cold in the center and the short ribs were way too salty. The cod and chicken dishes were good and the portions were generous. We will go back at some point but will not be in a hurry to do so.

    A treasure of a local Tavern. The staff is friendly and efficient. The food was very good and the menu, although not large, allows for consistent quality of the meals. The redecoration was tasteful and the noise level was low

    Showed up on a lovely Thursday night. Sat outside and listened to live music. The food was excellent, love their salads but was jealous of the guys with the burgers. Drinks were reasonable, looking forward to going back.

    Nice outdoor seating, good food and a great beverage selection. Food seemed to take a long time to come out of the kitchen. Server was great and checked on the progress of our meals, so it wasn’t her. Overall very happy with the place and will return.
