Bad service. Said table was ready but it wasn’t (despite being mostly empty). Then set the table for 5 instead of 6. Then didn’t have a server assigned to our table.

Many of us ordered the lobster roll. Mine was fine. However two others found the dish to be cold and had to send them back to be heated. The cauliflower steak was excellent and the braised ribs were good. The ambiance was a bit austere - very high ceilings, no rugs and a bit chilly. The service was good. Water glasses were continually filled and the waiter connected with us a number of times.

Appetizers, entrees and dessert were all outstanding! The patio is not particularly quiet (with constant street noise), and inside is noisier; this is a lively bar atmosphere, not a cozy romantic haunt. Prices are reasonable for food of this quality. I did not drink, but my party raved about the cocktails, as well.
