Food was excellent. Service was off. Took about 20 minutes for a server to come to our table and that was only after we went to host stand to point this out. The restaurant was overwhelmed in the 6:30- ish time frame.

We had a delightful Monday evening dining here. We had three appetizers, and our servers did a wonderful job of timing them so we could enjoy each on its own. The mushroom platter never disappoints, and we also enjoyed a cheese plate and delicious mussels. We like to go places where it isn’t too noisy, and the smaller size and table arrangement here allows for good conversation with just the right amount of liveliness.
