We were a party of four on a relatively quiet Thursday night. We were seated right away and our server stopped by soon after. We were brought water while we reviewed the menus and rolls soon after we ordered. I had duck confeit, my wife had a steak sandwich, the other couple had a pasta dish and burger. While the food was well prepared and had good flavor, it did not overwhelm any of us. My duck dish came with only a leg and thigh, which I feel was on the small side for the price. What did they do with the breast since there was no other duck dish on the menu. There were pieces of duck with cassolle, but it would not add up to the breast. While we will probably visit this restaurant again, I think the portions could be a little bigger.
