    We dine here often. The food is always delicious and the staff are always friendly. I only have one complaint and that is the seating. The booths are so uncomfortable and are so low that it makes it hard to get in and out easily. Every time I make a reservation I request a table however the last two times we were still seated in a booth. When you have a large party (6 or more) and get seated in a booth you are up and down to let people in and out to use the restroom is is just not a relaxing meal.

    The service here is phenomenal! The food was really good, just a little expensive. They don’t list prices on their website, which is always a little scary when you are driving 30-plus minutes to try something new. It’s definitely worth the trip though and I do plan to budget a little to come back during the summer!

    Dave Kelly band was playing the night we were there. We had fun interacting with them. Food was good. Restaurant and bar were busy, but staff was on top of it. Would definitely go again.
