    It was the Sunday Roast that brought our group here, and while that was absolutely fantastic, it’s really the atmosphere, service, and cocktails that push this place to 5 stars. The building is beautiful and extremely well decorated, with various separate sections that kept noise low and the atmosphere more intimate — we even ended up chatting with our neighbour table. The servers are extremely attentive and proactive, the drinks were delicious, and the food was absolutely stellar. We split 2 roasts across 3 people, and still ended up bringing a big box home, so I’d say portions are generous and the price to quality is pretty phenomenal.

    A tale of two meals - my wife was quite satisfied with the tuna curd and grain salad, while I was disappointed with the tepid soup (both flavor and temperature) and (burned) quiche. We have eaten there several times since it opened and are seeing a steady decline in the room's upkeep and tired approach to food service. The nearby cafeteria will be our likely in-museum option for future visits as its food i fresher and more imaginative.
