Nice birthday evening. Restaurant was very accommodating in seating us in a place that was not too noisy. Food ok, a bit overpriced. Service very good. Nothing offered for our son's birthday celebration.

Great place for dinner meetings. The food is OK the beer is great. Staff is great. We didn't need to raise our voices to be heard and far away from others so they didn't need to hear us. We went on a Thursday night.
