Service was excellent. The food was not. My salmon was very very overdone. The music was lovely but was way too loud. Ambience otherwise was cozy, clean and charming. Parking was convenient.

Our first time eating dinner there and catching a show. It was a very pleasant and enjoyable evening. The music made for a more special night out and the food was delicious and reasonably priced. Music was also excellent. Definitely would go back. The Duck Fat fries was awesome!
