    We were seated at a person high top near the bar and our waiter was the bartender. Our appetizer wings arrived barely hot as the waiter/bartender was not attentive. We also ordered the spaghetti and meatballs to share. There was a strange taste almost like someone sprayed Lysol near the food. The bartender/waiter was more interested in washing glasses then checking on his four assigned parties. After waiting a while I got up and went to the bar to ask for the check at the same time the table next to me also went up to ask for more water. Overall an experience that would not bring me back or refer a friend. Sad, I was expecting much better.

    Good atmosphere for family gatherings- especially if you have kids with you but are hoping to enjoy a drink or cocktail. Great service.

    Usually a good experience here. Unfortunately, Public School has paired down their menu and removed some good dishes. Overall it’s still good, but not what it once was, even a few months ago.
