    This is a very popular place and has a big menu. I love that they have a dog menu, and they treated our dog extremely well. The food we chose wasn't that great unfortunately and a bit on the oily side. The service was great and we had a nice spot on the patio.

    I enjoyed the steak, though I wish it came with something other than steamed vegetables.

    Staff were wonderful even on a busy holiday and food superb as always. The kitchen is sadly slow- even on non holidays - perhaps too small but nonetheless we will be back!

    There were 5 of us. We each ordered a dish which contained a burger patty in one form or another. Each burger was overcooked (medium rare was all our preferences). The outer perimeter of all of the burgers was overcooked, dry, and hard to cut and swallow. The flavor of the meat was good but it was so overcooked we couldn't enjoy it.
