    Many of us ordered the lobster roll. Mine was fine. However two others found the dish to be cold and had to send them back to be heated. The cauliflower steak was excellent and the braised ribs were good. The ambiance was a bit austere - very high ceilings, no rugs and a bit chilly. The service was good. Water glasses were continually filled and the waiter connected with us a number of times.

    Appetizers, entrees and dessert were all outstanding! The patio is not particularly quiet (with constant street noise), and inside is noisier; this is a lively bar atmosphere, not a cozy romantic haunt. Prices are reasonable for food of this quality. I did not drink, but my party raved about the cocktails, as well.

    We had a nice table in the mezzanine, which we really enjoyed. We were meeting with friends who really needed to unwind from some things going on in their life. Our waiter / bartender gave us great service with time when we needed it and attention when we needed it. The food and drinks were very good. The brioche bun dessert is fantastic - highly recommend.
