    The service was great, the food is good, but in my opinion if the could add a few new items in their breakfast menu it would be fantastic.

    When we booked on open table it said only outdoor seating. When we got to the restaurant it was cold outside. We were seated at a table without a heating lamp and were told they would get one right away. We were seated for ten minutes and had to ask again. We have a 2 year old and she was cold. Should not have to ask a second time for the obvious. Food was ok. Some dishes were good, but my ribeye seemed unsalted. Overall was not a great experience.

    Delitghfull dinner in the Veranda patio for an excellent New Years Eve date. Even if the beautiful sunset colors common this time of the year were not very evident the clear sky made up for a beautiful night. Great way of finishing a busy and happy 2024!
