    We went on a Monday night for the early bird dinner. The restaurant was slow and there was only one other table occupied. The service was good and the food overall was good. They were out of mashed potatoes which was the main accomplishment of what came with my pork chop. When I asked for pasta as a substitute, I was charged extra for it which I thought was wrong. Also, I selected carrot cake for dessert and when then dessert arrived, one’s brought a piece of cake that was baked by the bartender as they apparently were out of carrotcake. The service was good and the staff was friendly but the restaurant seemed to know that Monday was going to be slow so they did not need to restock.

    We love to sit in the bar area and enjoy a dinner for two or four. The live music is always the best and our waitress made our experience fun. The atmosphere is friendly, comfortable and fun.

    Always enjoy going and would go more often but the pricing of entrees is a bit over priced . Will continue to go on special occasions.

    Food was very disappointing. Apps were soggy. Eggplant was hard and sauce tasted like pure sugar.

    Food and service were good. However it was much too loud and ruined any ability to carry on a conversation. Have to remember to go earlier in the future before the music starts.
