    Salmon and chicken pot pie was awesome! Fried chicken wasn’t a favorite.

    Our wait staff person was incredibly helpful, pleasant and efficient. Our food was excellent. The noise level made conversation very difficult and we were seated outside. Talking with the hostess was almost impossible

    Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's just ok. Today was a just ok experience. The wedge salad barely had any blue cheese or dressing, was just chopped lettuce, not even just ok. The pasta putenesca was just ok. The clam linguine was pretty good. The bar is pricey. It's our 6th visit and thinking we will give it a pause.

    What a wonderful spot for a family birthday dinner! Each meal and beverage were delicious. My family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our evening, and we will be back.

    Lovely restaurant. The decor is warm and appealing. Delicious comfort food menu. The squash appetizer on burrata was delish, my honey fried chicken crunchy and delicious. The pot roast was scrumptious and reminded me of my grandmas home cooking. All food came to our table piping hot! A wonderful meal.

    We were there for lunch and it was packed. The food was tasty and we had good service. It took awhile for the food to come out and it was pretty noisy.

    The scallop risotto was divine and will set a new gold standard for me. The service was attentive and friendly. I can’t wait to go back.
