Last night we celebrated our daughter and.new.son in laws wedding reception dinner at the old school house. If you have never been there it's an old converted school house as noted in its name but it is unique and charming. Gus and his team were exceptional. We were a party of 18 and had previously discussed hors doerves and drinks before dinner which were served right on time and were excellent. Shortly after we moved into a private room. Which was set up beautifully. Although it was a small event the main waiter that was looking after us (Lenny) treated like a larger wedding wherein he made sure that the bride and groom got first attention on everything. As far as the quality of food it was fantastic. Everything was prepared to perfection. All friends and family that attended were happy content and well looked after. A special thank you to Gus and Lenny. Because of you both our daughter and son in law had the wedding that they will remember forever.

The service is always spectacular, same as the atmosphere, tons of history, everywhere you look... but honestly, for someone who doesn't eat seafood, not many apps without seafood. Lots of seafood on the menu, but like a lot of other people seafood is not appetizing... like in the future, unless I'm going in with a party, I don't think I'd come here to dine with my partner, there is limited menu items without seafood. Now do not get me wrong, they have great food, but for someone like me, I had to really settle for a vegetarian pasta because of the lack of non-seafood options. It's more like a couple steak options and a couple pasta options... Everyone I went with had a great time, zero complaints, all food was amazing (put it this way, even though i settle for veggie pasta, there was no veggy pasta left on my plate when I was finished). Service, nothing compares to it... atmosphere really nice and historic... almost forgot, their house dressing, as the greta ric flair once said... WOOO!

Their are add meat options.Dietary restrictions: Easy a la cart options to manage dietParking: Never seen the lot totally full so there is always space.
