    Four of us sat at the bar for dinner. We had a lot of fun. Drinks were great. We ordered a variety of the smaller plates, all were very good. Also had the larger plate Steak Frites. Also very good. Banana Pudding for dessert. We all loved it.

    First time trying. Found on Open Table and took wife for Birthday. Nothing special to look out, sort of out of way but no complaints. Plenty of parking, food was decent and prices were respectable. Would recommend for a casual meal but if you're looking for ambiance not so much. Again We'd return!
