Located in the Pillar and Post, it boasts a rich decor, especially in the evening when the fireplaces are going, the lights are lit, and the Christmas decorations abound. While it is a big restaurant, you never feel you are crowded. Service was impeccable and the food outstanding! Always a wonderful and satisfying meal. It is a bit on the pricey side, but well worth it for a special occasion. I do wish that since I had let them know it was my friend's birthday, they would have offered or surprised him with a complimentary dessert. Guess that isn't a thing anymore. Nonetheless, an evening well spent with good friends and good food!

My only small complaint was our server. My wife and I were there to have a nice relaxed time. Our server was perhaps trying to be too attentive but it felt like he was rushing us. We actually didn’t order our mains until our starters were complete so that it wasn’t a sprint meal. Even then, we were done in one hour.
