Pleasantly surprised. The more recent Yelp and Open Table reviews leave something to be desired, and I was worried when my friends and I decided to dine here again. The last time, roughly 6 months ago, wasn't very good. This time we were seated in a quiet room by the fireplace and far away from the noise of the bar. The service was much better than last time. Our food came quickly and was delicious. I had the salmon, one friend had the burger and another friend had a pasta dish. All were generously portioned and cooked properly. Glad we gave it another chance.

Had a lovely table by the fireplace. Excellent Martini and J. Lohr Cab. Onion soup was very good as was my strip steak. Very nicely seasoned. Love their hot rolls!

Food was okay. Very loud band made conversing impossible. For a pub, I would have thought there would have been a drink list, but there was none. They also advertise gelato for which there was one flavor...coffee.

Service and ambiance were great. The consensus of the table was that all four dinners lacked seasoning.

Very pleasant, unpretentious, decent food in a historic building. Ordered coconut shrimp, salad, and crab cakes. Everything was very good. No complaints. A solid 3-4 stars.

Absolutely the worst restaurant ever. Food was unavailable, dry, overpriced and not cooked to order. Worst yet, the manager had the nerve to tell us it was a busy week and the 400.00 bill could not be ammended to reflect the numerous complaints we had. One drink was pawned off as a better one, never try that on a bourbon conneiseiur. Will NEVER attempt this joke of an establishment again, nor recommend to anyone. Very sorry to have wasted my friends money and time. Avoid this place.

When a restaurant includes gratuity, servers do not care. Server did was hard to find and also did not bring out appetizers. Brought out main dishes and no apps. When questioned, server really did not care and asked what we ordered. Very poor service. Then it made sense when the gratuity was already included in the check. Restaurant was not busy either. Server only had a few tables.
