   We ordered mussels and they were served to us wrapped in tin foil, I’ve never seen such a thing. We returned them, they didn’t taste good and was a weird consistency. All our drinks took forever. There were like 10 servers and only 2 bartenders and the bar was very busy. The bartenders were running like crazy the bar was a mess, but plenty of servers and hosts just standing around. It was strange, cross train more people and help each other out. Leah was our server she was very nice but could only control so much. We sat near the windows it was very drafty, we had to switch tables. All the servers were not surprised that we complained of drafts. The resturant was not full, why not just seat people where it’s warm? Strange. Won’t go back.

   We were offered a booth or window table, after picking a high top table on the reservation. They don’t have high tops. It shouldn’t be on the reservation. At night, the window seats shouldn’t be offered. It’s cold in that area, some blinds were pulled down and the windows re useless. Our server was great and the food was great.

   Thank you for your thoughtful review, Maureen. While we’re glad you enjoyed the great food and service, we apologize for the confusion with your reservation and the chilly window seating. We’ll review these details to ensure a more comfortable and seamless experience in the future. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again!

   Everything we ordered from the Early Bird Menu was delicious and the entire 3 course meal - which included coffee AND dessert - was an excellent value. Jack, our server, was very attentive, and the only negative was that our entrees were brought to the table before my wife was even 1/4 the way through her salad. A better (slower) pace would have been appreciated.

   Thank you, Thomas! We're delighted you enjoyed your Early Bird Menu experience and found it to be an excellent value. We appreciate your note about pacing; we’ll work with our team to ensure a smoother flow during meals. Jack will be pleased to hear your compliments about his attentive service. We can’t wait to serve you again!
