    Food was good just very overpriced. A dog was at the table next to us and while it was well behaved I do not appreciate a dog being in a fine dining restaurant such as this.

    Love the food, service was great but do to weather we had to sit inside. The music was so loud we couldn’t speak to each other or server without yelling. I would only go back if seated outside. We ate quickly and skipping after dinner er drinks and dessert due to noise level

    We had a reservation and was seated 15 minutes late. Then got to our table and had to wait another 10 minutes for service. Asked to move inside due to it being very windy. Was told we can move inside but service was lacking inside he said. We went inside, waited 10 minutes and still didn’t get service, water or anything, so we left. Was not impressed with the host, service or rude comments by the male server who moved us. Was excited to try this restaurant as heard it was good, but the service was horrible and it wasn’t even that busy. Not a good experience at all.
