I like the booth seating for the private intimate feeling. The was food was excellent, and the service was well timed. We told our server that we wanted to talk, so she gave us plenty of time to enjoy our drinks, chat, and leisurely review the menu. I look forward to returning again.

This was our first time there. The food was really good but it was later in the evening so we were prob the last tables to eat. The server was super nice and helpful. We loved that they had the local left coast Una Mas beer to drink.

Once again - a great meal. We started with the short rib poutine - our favorite. Friends had crab stack - very good. Followed by excellent lamb with pistachio cover. Just always enjoy this place - however, teh service this time was a little slow. Very unusual!

The service (Serena) was impeccable and the food was delicious, tasty and hot! My only suggestion is to do something with that bookcase and ceiling rail... needs a little bit more ambiance!! Take a visit and see what Coastal Kitchen did with theirs! Just a small recommendation which I think would add lots to your place 😁
