Loved this restaurant; everyone friendly and accommodating. Food was delicious. Only one issue was that no one ever checked that we needed another glass of wine; we had to help ourselves and walk across the porch to fetch it from the ice bucket. Will return, & this was a tiny glitch (the wine recommendation was excellent)!
