We had reservations for 6:45, arrived on time. Waited 15 minutes for the waitress to take our order. Our drinks arrived and the salad we ordered. Then we waited 1 hour for a steak. At no time did they offer bread or anything to keep us going for the long delay on our main entree. We literally had to scarf down our steak because our meter of 2 hours was about to expire and was 3 blocks away. Just don’t feel they were prepared for the amount of people at the restaurant. Under staffed and maybe lacking in the kitchen help. Felt very unsatisfied with the meal, as well as the service.

Always a pleasure to eat here. Better on weekends, as they apparently have the A team in the kitchen then. The chicken continues to be one of the best dishes with its combination of heat and sweet. Wait staff is typically attentive without hovering, and last night was no exception.

The food and service were excellent. The only issue is that they let people come in with dogs inside the restaurant and were 100% not service animals.

Restaurant looked great very cozy. Food was great good flavor. Prices seemed steep. I’m from Chicago and I’m used to high prices how ever portion sizes did not meet the prices. Also drinks took forever to come out. Over all good.

Made for a great last minute New Year's Eve dinner. The grilled salmon salad is my favorite. The food never disappoints and this time the service didn't either. They have a great new (to us) hostess and our server Tessa was awesome...great food and great service made for an an exceptional dining experience. The heat lamps made eating outside cozy and are table for 2 was quaint... Hope this is the trend for 2025. It's great!

Great spot to meet old friends. Loved the clam chowder and sat on the patio which was warm enough with the heaters. The clam chowder was outstanding. They had the burgers and loved them. Successfully cooked medium rare.

I know it was the Holiday Stroll but there were several screaming kids running around the restaurant like their parents owned the place. Other than that, we had a great experience!

There weren't enough chips provided with the ceviche, and so we asked for a few more. I was very surprised that we were charged $2 for the extra chips when the problem was they didn't provide enough to begin with. The waiter also did not tell us before we got the bill that we would be charged. Very petty
