Customer Review Summary

Food is the draw reviewers return to most, described as fresh, flavorful and generously portioned, with several singling out how tender the chicken and meat are and rating the presentation top marks. One diner picks out the Ribeye as among the best they have eaten in a long while, and another calls the lunchtime menu reason enough for an impromptu visit. Cocktails come up close behind, with one reviewer calling this the place to come for one. Beyond the plate, several mention the clean, well decorated room and a welcoming greeting from the owner, whom multiple guests describe as professional and unbothered by extra requests. Longtime fans of the previous restaurant on the site say the change of name and management did not disappoint. One reviewer found a Saturday brunch a bit quiet, though they enjoyed the waiters who were keen to chat. Another describes live entertainment pitched low enough that conversation across the table still worked.
