    We started the dinner off with calamari and artichokes, they were both fantastic. For entrees we had Chicken Savoy, Porkchop, linguini with clam, and Tuscan Cod all amazing and large portions.

    I had not been to this restaurant in several years. The decor has changed-very nice. The menu did have some of the previous items, in addition to some what I would describe as”pub-style” selections. I had the bourbon glazed sucking pig whic was probably the most delicious piece of pork I ever had. My friend enjoyed the halibut immensely. Our dessert, which we shared, was the S’mores item. It was a really different take on this classic. Absolutely delicious and a unique way of serving it in a small iron skillet. Our servers were delightful. Attentive without being intrusive. Very glad I returned to this restaurant. Will be back.

    We had an amazing anniversary dinner with a wonderful view! The oysters were so fresh and our steaks tender and cooked to perfection. We also had a very attentive server and we enjoyed a terrific piano player’s music. The menu has a nice variety and we’d like to try more of the dishes. Our only comment would be to add linen tablecloths. The plastic mats made it feel more cafeteria style and the meal (and prices) warranted a more upscale atmosphere. Truly great food!
