Really not a great restaurant, we waited nearly 10 or 15 minutes for our drink. (Not necessarily a problem) the stuffed mushrooms appetizer was actually pretty good. I ordered a medium rare steak, it was bloody rare. Shrimp were good, broccoli actually pretty good. 😄 the pasta with all the seafood not great. ( sauce was ok). Would I go back, spot was cool, beer was good, mushrooms good. Actual dinner served yikes.
