Some of us had never been there and we were pleasantly surprised. We were a large party, and from the host who sat us, to our check, the experience was pleasant and smooth. Our server was attentive, but not obtrusive, and made us each feel like we were his only guest. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food and I thought mine was excellent, well priced and thoughtfully prepared. We will definitely be back!

Probably a great bar but for a dinner it is not as good as many competitors, like Clydes at Mark Center, Carlyle Cafe, etc.

We ordered a shared starter of Baked Brie which did not come as a starter. It all came with the main course. We sat outside on a very small table and all the entrees along with starter could not fit on the table. We had to move our water glasses off the table. The waitress noticed this that the starter should have gone earlier, but it was too late to make any changes. The Baked Brie was excellent but enteees of Pork Chop and Short Rib was fair, but not fantastic. Maybe it was the small table and the noise of 3 dogs in outdoor dining area did not make for a good atmosphere.

Party of six following a play at the signature theater. Reservation was ready staff was cordial and accommodating and the food was delicious!

I really enjoyed my experience at this establishment. Although there was some initial confusion about how to accommodate my large group on its patio, the manager was exceedingly accommodating and our server (I believe her name is Sarah) was amazing. I will be back!

Joseph our server was outstanding! He explained the nuances of each dish we asked about and did everything with a smile. The food was great, as usual.

We had tickets nearby. They did a good job of getting us in and out, but felt a bit rushed— our entrees came out before we finished our appetizer. The menu was small but interesting (don't see roast duck a lot) and the portions good. Steak and pork chop a bit undercooked as ordered. Decent place, just didn't crush it.

My second visit was just as enjoyable as my first. Delicious fresh food with equally enjoyable cocktails.

The French onion soup always hits the spot! Service was excellent from Marco and I enjoyed the complimentary corn bread taster!

We’ve been here three times and had Elias as our waiter all three times (Happy Hour, Brunch, and Dinner). Each visit was better than the previous—outstanding service, phenomenal food, and a great atmosphere!

The bartenders here either don't like their jobs or just don't like black people. I live in the area so I come here fairly often. Each time I've sat at the bar the service has been horrendous. The first notable incident, one of the bartenders, hispanic looking male, was very dismissive and generally unpleasant. Not a hospitable attitude at all. But I noticed he wasn't as short with the other customers at the bar as he was me. I thought maybe I was looking for an issue that wasn't there until a black couple sat next to me. They immediately picked up on the bartenders vibe because not long into them sitting at the bar (patiently waiting to even have someone come up to ACKNOWLEDGE them) after they FINALLY interacted with him, the man turned to me and asked if it was just him or if the bartender had a funky attitude. I told him it absolutely wasn't just him and that I had gotten the same.
Second noticeable time which was just about 2 months ago I sat at the bar again. It wasn't by any means empty but there were 2 bartenders at the bar and a 3rd worker hovering around. The first bartender, white male, kept looking over at me but not once did he bother to greet me or even acknowledge my presence while he was attending to the other patrons. All white might I add. After about 10 minutes the second bartender who was a woman came and greeted me but that was it. I hadn't even had a water placed in front of me at this point. I continued to wait and wait for a second interaction. I waited 20. MINUTES. to even be served a simple WATER. And can you believe I STILL stayed and ordered food after that? Because I can't and I really wish I hadn't

The Peach Crostini appetizer was unusual and different in a good way. Peaches are in season now, and these were so fresh and sweet that this could have been a dessert! My Rainbow Trout entree was perfectly prepared - the fish was moist and flaky. My husband enjoyed his pork chop, which was served with more of those delicious peaches. Service was attentive, noise level was low enough that conversation was easy. Overall , a wonderful meal experience! We'll be back.

Our food and service were outstanding. I had a salad with salmon which was both tasty and healthy. I look foward to our next visit.

We come here for a date night a few times a year. The food is ok, but never amazing, especially for the price. My advice is to stick with the cheaper options.

Last time we were there, my wife got the duck, and it was pretty dry. I got the beef sandwich which was great. The time before I got the steak, and it was overcooked. Just disappointing that the food is pretty inconsistent. Very cool atmosphere and the service is always good.
