We both had pan seared salmon and it was excellent. This was our second time there within a couple of months. This seems to be a bar with good food. Both times it was full of customers.The 18% gratuity is fixed in the bill. I find it annoying as a TIP is about the good/bad service, employees, food, ambience, etc.
