    Overpriced for its value! While the service may be good, the food is subpar at best. Comparing with other locally owned Columbus restaurant, and the price does not match the flavor or lack of it. Everything I’ve tried from the starter to the fries to the fish to the sliders - all lack the love and care of a restaurant average just under $30 a plate. The ambience was cool but my dinner was early so I can’t judge that. In my mind, this wasn’t as bad as Kona Grill but it wasn’t an improvement on that chain. Word of warning; I may be more hypercritical than most because I believe spices are essential to good food as opposed to tasteless well prepared food with no spice - which is what you get.

    Love the restaurant. It was very loud- would like a quieter space if possible.

    Very cold on the back room - not nearly the same ambience as the restaurant- need to do a better job at making this room more than a low scale banquet room

    Overall everything was really good unfortunately my meal the fish and chips was overcooked and the fish was dry. We come every Christmas to celebrate with a party of eight so next year I guess I won't order the fish.
