Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the live entertainment as the standout, with several noting the singer, live music, and weekend DJ or jazz band elevating the atmosphere. Close behind are the cocktails, praised for their quality and the staff’s knowledge, while the food earns frequent mention for dishes like the mussels, steak flatbread, and loaded fries. A recurring caveat is the food’s inconsistency, with one reviewer describing fries as reheated, puff pastry as insubstantial, and meat over-salted, while another found the Caesar salad overwhelmed by dressing. Several also highlight the dog-friendly policy and the option to share small plates.
