The food was good. Service was ok - very busy night at the bar with no support from other staff. Also loud so not necessarily a great choice if you were/are looking for a romantic dinner.

Excellent food. We had the lamb chops (got 1 extra chop snd then split the order), Brussel sprouts, and mussels. The setting was rather stark and uninspiring, but the service was good.

Excellent friendly service. Good choice of specialty cocktails and wines by the glass, in addition to the food selection. The Wild Mushroom Fettuccine was especially rich and filling. It was our first time here, but we'll be back again.

Staff was all friendly and helpful. They were able to leave andouille sausage out of the mussels for me & they were still delicious. Brussels sprouts were particularly good. My husband enjoyed his fried chicken meal. We sat upstairs where it was a little warm, but drinking iced water made us much cooler.

Nice lively spot! Extensive drink menu and fun menu The food and service were very good and our waiter was nice and courteous! Not giving it 5 stars because I exchanged the garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli which also had garlic to which I am allergic with sauteed vegetables, There was a $4.00 "change Fee" that was never mentioned when the substitution was suggested by the waiter. 1- there should not be such a charge 2- is there is the patron should be made aware and decide to proceed accordingly. $4.00 is not the end of the world but it is not professional not to mention it hoping the client would not notice.

The waitress told us that any/all proteins added to the gnocchi would be $7 (or maybe $8). Turns out the shrimp was $14, which we found out after the receipt came out. No offer at all to rectify the mistake or even apology, just an awkward “I guess so.”
