    A Wednesday night out. Salads very good, steak only fair. Only 3-4 tables but one very noisy a few tables away. Asked waiter if they could ask them to be a bit quieter. Manager came over and said he couldn’t as they were celebrating, I said so were we as it is our anniversary. ( it really was). Noisy table continued. On the way out, coats on, manager asks if everything ok and can he buy us a drink. Too late, should have offered when we were still seated. Won’t go back, too many other options. Marc

    Great lunch deal. The food was good not great, but the lunch prix fixe more than takes that into account.

    Ordered steak medium and it came rare. They refused to give us an extra hot plate to cook it a bit more since it was busy.
