The restaurant was not busy at 4:30 pm but there was a”shift change “ and we waited a while before we were able to order drinks. Good food and drinks.

When I have visitors, I always take them here for a meal. Service is always outstanding. With a varied menu for all, diet restrictions are always graciously accommodated. A great value, too.

My overall experience was great at the bar. However, I would like this location to update their website regarding the Martini Hour. Is it available or not? When I asked about it sitting at the bar, we told it's not available.
