Great restaurant with quality food and service. Unfortunately our wait staff no less than four times had to return to our table to inform us that the drink, dish, or dessert we ordered was unavailable. Seemed odd they were short supplied of multiple menu items.

What a lovely surprise! This was one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Everything was so good and the quality of the food was excellent. Highly recommend the oyster appetizer special and the lamb neck - those were standouts dishes.
