Had an absolutely exceptional, fabulous, gorgeous time with my friends here today. Dining in the cellar room felt like we had gone back in time. A nice feel of classy casual. The level of service was fantastic, with designated friendly waiters continually checking in and keeping us hydrated. The starter/share plates and cocktails were so tasty. Fuss free, and quaint. I look forward to going back.

Glad we found this place. The food and cocktails were amazing as was the friendly service. We were there for a late lunch so towards the end the main was taking a fairly long time. In all fairness to them they may have been giving us time to digest all the food we already had. $49 for 5 or 6 courses. Delicious!
