                                                      Don’t even bother making a reservation. You won’t be seated until 30-45 minutes after your reservation time, and the hosts will be rude about it, which is super fun. Drinks are amazing 10/10.

                                                      Truly one of the best meals we've ever had, and they had easy food allergy options and accommodations. The staff were all incredibly friendly and genuinely seemed to like working there.

                                                      Food was okay. Squash rings were greasy sauce was good Didn’t realize it was fried. Not in description Beef Wellington could have been cooked a bit more. Very very rare. Lamb sausage and pasta very good. Slightly spicy Donuts were perfect and delish

                                                      We opted for 3 small plates and 3 Parker House rolls with home made unsalted and herbed butter. Food bespoke butter rich but outstanding. Our waitress was personable, welcomingly dramatic and totally helpful. Great experience. Expensive yes but worth it for our 49th anniversary weekend.
