The food was overall good. The sauce that came with the duck was excellent --huckleberry. Folks said the steaks were decent. Service was excellent. Cocktails were well made. An old school place.

We dined here twice! On the patio during the day (I’d highly suggest the tuna sandwich and Caesar salad!!) and then once again in the evening for a steak dinner. The filet mignon was delicious and perfectly with a nice glass of red wine. We dined at the bar area but the dining room looked more quaint and elevated. If you’re looking to come here for a more intimate setting, I’d recommend dining in the dining room area.

Food and service was delicious. I was a little skeptical when Google rated it three dollar signs, but I thought the food was reasonably priced. Of course you go over board and order wine.
