    Party of 6 friends. Everyone enjoyed the casual atmosphere of the restaurant and liked their meal. The menu was reasonably priced and diverse. I was asked “how did you find this place?”. Truthfully, picked randomly from YELP reviews 😊.

    Excellent food in a toned down setting that is loud and exciting. The beet salad and rack of lamb made for a great meal. Sadly they were having trouble with their beer dispensing machinery so their usual fine selection was unavailable.

    My wife and I went there for the first time last night and had a great experience. Our hostess/waitress was awesome and knew the recommendations to offer. The food was delicious and everything was promptly served. Couldn't ask for a better spot

    This is a great restaurant that I am so happy we found it. By 7:00 PM, not a table or bar seat was open on a Friday night. Love the cocktails, appetizers and food. Lobster chefs salad was delicious, fish was tasty and great and the small plate lobster mac was incredible.

    Delicious meal - the parmesan fluke was top notch. Enjoyed the octopus app as well. It's very loud and kinda cramped which is the only drawback.

    Food as always is on point. Service can slow down when its very crowded. I think it is due to lack or not enough bus support staff. When hostess & waitress have to perform services that a bus person has to do it takes away from their primary responsibility of tending to the customers for food and more drinks. Their sister restaurants have ample bus persons not sure why this one does not. I was here for valentines and now our anniversary and both times wait time for table service was slightly delayed compared to their other spots and we frequent them all regularly. we want this one to be our special occasion go to since the three others are next to where we live. we will return because of the food and atmosphere.
