Service was very slow with entrees coming more than 90 minutes after we ordered. Appetizers were also slow requiring ~45 minutes to arrive after we ordered. Our waiter didn’t bother to check in on us at all in between, though we did get frequent water refills from another server. Food when it arrived was very good, though I was surprised there was no ketchup available to go with the fish and chips special.

The restaurant was empty arriving to our 2 year wedding anniversary dinner. I requested a tiny spot specifying it was our 2 year wedding anniversary. The table was small and despite restaurant being almost vacant I was placed on a corner with a lamp in the way. During the hour there was 1 other table that sat; however, they a different server so it shouldn’t have been so slow. it took 38min to get our drinks from order. Food was slow. We ordered apps but they took longer than mains in vacant restaurant. Over an hour before apps in an empty restaurant. We didn’t order mains. Nobody checked in or cleared plates. Server was gossiping with hostess outside door. Would not recommend. Poor service and waste

Majority of the food was outstanding - complimentary bread 🤤. Spiced rum bbq wings were delicious. The beef tenderloin was so perfect. Only complaint was the fish and chips - very over cooked and didn’t even eat half of it. The fish was very disappointing and wasn’t close to the calibre of the rest of the dishes.

The food was excellent, but the timing was terrible. It took forever to get our dinner. The waitress seemed to disappear for awhile too and there weren't that many people in the restaurant. The food was worth the wait, but if you're in a hurry not the place to go.

The halibut was so salty and burnt to a crisp that I could not eat it ! It was extremely bad ! I was a regular customer (4 or 5 times a year) but this time it was really really poor . We had marinated mussels in our appetite, they tasted off so we did not eat them either . Very very disappointing food this time , terrible for the money it cost to go out for an evening !

This is a very consistent restaurant in food quality which is great. They have some new staff so I’m sure it will be better service next time. Wasn’t bad but used to seeing it run more smoothly. It’s a little more pricey but it’s the same experience with most places now. Still a great place to eat.

Server very nice but almost seemed like no real experienced. Food ok but overpriced for what you get. Didn't like layout. Yes it's Older building but still seemed like we were simply sat down in old house with all the furniture moved out and few sheets thrown over old table sets to make it look uniform. For the price I don't think the layout what we were expecting, certainly not the dining experience we were used to. Not somewhere we would go back to or recommend
