We liked how staff was very friendly and owner came over. We thought at first that was great but he wanted us to know one of the dinners was not what we expected. He said if we wanted to try and did not like it no issue could order something else. My husband got his dinner the cod was very tough, George never came back to Check on his dinner.
If they don’t like it and have issues should not be on menus. Crazy
