    Our server and the manager couldn’t have been more lovely or gracious. The food was good but the cozy environment, location and service were outstanding. Would definitely come back.

    The service was very good the staff were very friendly and helpful. I truly believe the other dishes offered looked very good and very good choices. But we had the crab cakes and they were not very good which was disappointing to say the least. They had no clumps of crab at all; it was most if not all shredded crab like out of a can and mostly bread. They were two large pieces but one done well it would have been better to have one done well. For $28 a dish not worth it at all; we did not complain because our server was so nice that we didn’t want to make him feel bad. I would definitely go there again for brunch or lunch and try other dishes, but just stay away from the crab cakes.
