We love this place and dine here weekly; rarely are we disappointed. However, on this visit, my bride’s salmon was overcooked (charred) as was the chicken on my sandwich. The server gladly had the salmon redone and I ate the chicken sandwich as served despite it being dry and a bit tough. Because this was a rare aberration, I am not the least bit discouraged about returning next week. With these exceptions, everything else about our visit (service, ambiance, promptness, etc.) was up to par.
