Amiable service with the option to wait for a table by sitting at the bar. The bar was across from the kitchen. So we decided to stay at there - was fun to see the dishes being delivered. The brussel sprouts are delicious. Huge chicken tenders. Beer service excellent :) A great find for weary travellers.
