Our first visit to the kitchen. Service was excellent. Ambience is so beautiful- very charming. Food was mixed review... my nephews cheeseburger was excellent - he loved it. Mac n cheese with bacon was ok. Excellent fries. I had the codfish with veggies and it was ok, not very hot - more like luke warm. My daughter had a side of salmon and she enjoyed it. Rice is loaded with butter which is just not my thing. Blackened shrimp were delicious

Amazing food and amazing drinks. Most restaurants are hit or miss depending on the day or have good food or just good drinks and never both. The kitchen is always amazing and I absolutely love both the food and drinks. My favorite drink lately is their bourbon smash I highly recommend , my favorite app has to be the seared filet tips I get it as a meal when I am just wanting something light and my absolute favorite burger I have ever had is the kitchen burger it is amazing and...

Pleasantly surprised. Super hungry so stopped in thinking basic pub food. Nope. Gourmet. Coffee rub burger with brie and bacon jam along with a filet wrap? Omg! Really good fries too. Can’t wait to go back. Slow time of day so bartender was are server. Lovely. Very knowledgeable of the menu and made fantastic suggestions.
