Nice place, and usually pretty good food. We were there right after a golf tournament this time. The golfers at the two nearby tables were LOUD and very amused at their own wit.

Food was surprisingly disappointing. Normally it’s very good. I won’t come back for an event that offers family style preselected food again.

They should say on Open Table that they have a Sunday menu and it’s only chicken! And the chicken isn’t even good! Dry, stringy and over cooked. And for a chicken only menu with only 3 tables why does it take 40 minutes to get food. Went for steak and got bad chicken.
