We sat at the bar and they have a nice happy hour from 3-6. We enjoyed some of the happy hour options but also ordered entrees. The salmon was cooked to perfection. All of the staff was attentive and kind including the hostess, bar tenders, and wait staff. The ambiance with the fireplaces was perfect for a cold evening.

Was there for lunch with work colleagues. Server was pleasant and efficient. Food was excellent and not a long wait for the four of us. It was a little noisy on the day we went (12-1pm) which could be expected at that time but it was a little hard to hear each other & we were at a normal sized table.
