    We had to be at a 6PM concert and drove in to town. If I hadn’t looked at the web, I would never have gone it. The only real eye catcher on the street says Bowling Alley. We went in and the alley was new and clean, and the restaurant was upstairs. Wee walked up and it was immediately apparent somebody knew what they were doing with wood, wire ,contrast, and top floor of original brick with a bar and small stage. The waitress happened to be headed to grad school in oboe—which means she is into details. We told her of our time constraint and we were out on time, but also had a chance to dance to the Jazz Standards being played live. Murray? Who knew?

    The service was very very slow. We had children with us and it was hard to keep them happy while waiting on our meal. The food was delicious. I was disappointed that Todd took so many breaks or it seemed so - maybe bc the service was slow.

    I thought the flavor of the prime ribeye left a bit to be desired. It was a good cut of meat, but I tasted a bit more char than steak. Maybe it was a seasoning problem, though I’m not sure. The steak I had the last time I was there almost 2 years ago was sublime, but I just couldn’t say that about this one.

    Glass had a chip on it - had to send drink back. One of the meals had shells still on the shrimp - it was a pasta meal. Ribeye was grizzly. Filet was good.

    Steaks were delicious and cream spinach is a must have. Wonderful atmosphere with piano/singing made for a great evening. Lindsay was our waitress and she was THE best!! Will request her when we dine there, again.
