Great location in the summer, pretty average in the off season. We had reservations and got seated promptly. Staff at the door were great. Service was pretty good. Drinks came quickly. Live music was unexpected and way too loud for dinner. Jambalaya....one of us though it was just okay, one of us didn't like it at all. We would go back but only in the summer on the deck.Table service was very good, attentive and friendly. Overall it was just an average pub experience.
