Came here for dinner on a Sunday night, so not busy. Service was excellent and the food was very good. I personally did not like the dressing for the chips, an aoli or simply tomato sauce would have been better. My dessert was not overly sweet, but could have used either a large scoop of ice cream or and addition of cream as pudding very cakey. Still I enjoyed our evening. Thanks for your review apriln510were glad you enjoyed or evening with usaioli or ketchup, chocolate or vanilla ice cream, both personal preferences.regardsrichard

Stumbled across this gem of a spot while getting our bearings and ended up staying for dinner. Absolute waterfront location, great beers, wines, cocktails and dinner was divine. Once it started cooling down they lit the fire which was welcome.

Food was gorgeous both mornings, there was something in the holindays sauce it was to die for!!! Next day I had the pancakes they were beautiful I would have preferred my blueberries fresh on top on or the side with the cream instead if cooked into the pancake they were very hot.

My first visit was on a beautiful day so sat outside at table with my lab and had the tastiest burger ever with scrumptious french fries and a beer. Attended to by very friendly staff who were happy with my dog at my feet. I will be back!

Reviewed By Diane R

Appears significantly understaffed. Cocktails sat on the bar for sometime before being delivered, entree arrived promptly but mains took over an hour. This is completely unacceptable. Food was just ok. One main was cold but diner did not say anything about it as we had waited so long. We were not offered dessert or coffee. The Maitre'd was sitting at another table talking and ignored us. Difficulties with the bill. We wished to split it which in itself was not a problem but they could not produce a complete account for us to check. After 20 minutes of trying to get a total bill printed we gave up, paid and left. Would never go back as they simply didn't seem to care.
