    Ordered the fish unfortunately it was very dry disappointed. Meatloaf was mediocre. Onion soup was good but over cooked bread was burnt.

    We love going there before performances at the Pioneer Center. They have a special menu just for theater goers. It’s a good value but sometimes we don’t want that much food so we order off the regular menu which has many excellent choices.

    We had a lovely table and location. The service was good. The meal was average in total. The Salmon dish was great. The Ribeye was not up to the snuf, very thin, lots of grissle, and was cooked inconsistency from overdone to basically raw. The bar service was great.

    Servers were attentive, very helpful, and speedy service. However food was mediocre. Our butternut squash hummus was very good, despite the accompaniment of old carrot and celery sticks and cucumbers that are the verge of being fully soggy. The ahi poke was overloaded with crisp compared to portion of ahi poke. However, we loved and licked every drop of the creamy sauce from our mushroom ravioli.

    Dinner was exceptional! The flirt was cooked perfectly, the scallops were so good. The crème brûlée was out of this world! We will definitely be back.
