We all tried a bite of each other's food, and all of us had a great meal. I got the Spice Bag, and it was absolutely delicious. It's not too hot, chicken pleasantly crispy, excellent curry gravy dip. The outdoor patio was so fun to sit at and watch the people below.

Wife had the Citrus Beet salad, loved it. I had the Shepards pie and it was amazing, best thing i'd eaten all month. I'd have ordered another if we had more time to eat! Service was meh, they forgot our dressing so we had to hunt our waiter down and took forever with the check, which was a bit disappointing since it wasnt busy at all. I'd eat there again, was a good experience overall!

Came in a couple of times with our sales team to compare notes, and both times, we had good drinks, a nice atmosphere in which to talk, and a helpful bartender.
I'm seldom in this area, but I'll definitely stop by when I am.
