I enjoyed The Bees Knees, Gin, honey syrup and lemon juice. Would recommend The deviled eggs for an appetizer were yummy. Shared a ceasar salad with the husband...a bit too lemony.. We then had the lollipop lamb chops , with creamed spinach, and the PEI mussels as an entree. Lamb chops were tasty, had more garlic than we cared for. Would have been better off ordering them as an appetizer. We didn't need that much food. Great service, its a beautiful restaurant. Next time we'll sit at the bar, which was packed when we arrived. I wasn't happy with our small table, and would have much rather of sat in the main dining area. I asked if we could switch our table, but we didn't seem to have a choice.
