It was a nice vibe. Good food and good music. The lamb chops platter only gave 2 lamb chops which was very minimal. Other than that. It was a good time.

We sat at the bar for Thanksgiving and the service was friendly, quick and efficient. The main course (plant-based veggie loaf for we vegetarians) was fantastic as were the sides. Highly recommend.
