    This place has a chance at being ring great. Adjust the lighting. The music is also not great. The booths are way too close as you sit. Honestly, it’s close to being a place we’d come back to but not as is.

    The restaurant was understaffed for a weekend night so service was slow. The arancini appetizers were cold in the center and the short ribs were way too salty. The cod and chicken dishes were good and the portions were generous. We will go back at some point but will not be in a hurry to do so.

    A treasure of a local Tavern. The staff is friendly and efficient. The food was very good and the menu, although not large, allows for consistent quality of the meals. The redecoration was tasteful and the noise level was low

    Showed up on a lovely Thursday night. Sat outside and listened to live music. The food was excellent, love their salads but was jealous of the guys with the burgers. Drinks were reasonable, looking forward to going back.
