We were able to get a last minute reservation for Valentine’s Day. As expected they were extremely busy however our server was wonderful and very engaging. The food was well prepared (the muscles were amazing) and came out in a timely manner.

Joe’s time seems to have come…and gone. This used to be a pretty good place, but our experience last night was dismal. The abundance of open tables was a first bad sign. The prevalence of young kids was another (we love kids.) The party of four unhappy looking 20 something’s yet another. Our waiter, D, could not have cared less about us and could barely manage a smile. He never refilled our water despite saying he would. The truffle fries were mushy,and the mushroom burger was cold and inedible. Never again will we waste our money here.

Not busy on a chilly windy afternoon. Waiter went to bat for us and came up with dollar oysters even though we were early. Burger was loaded and good. Caprese salad suffered from not quite ripe tomatoes but was otherwise fine. Drinks prompt and generous.
