The food and drinks were good. The service was great too. Would definitely go back- most likely in the summer.

I inquired further as to when a table would be ready: answer, "they have just sat down and are now ordering." Everyone? I questioned....... (I will spare you the remainder of the details. I eventually obtained a seat. Point in order: I was offered a single seat at the bar where there are no single seats on the patio. Special note: I have encountered this before at this restaurant. Ordered the short rib dinner. It came, after a request for at least 2 additional beverages, and it was over cooked and very dry. The potatoes were cold and the vegetable medley was: over cooked carrots, under cooked parsnips and another root vegetable that I could not recognize. I chose to order desert: Apple pie empanadas. It came out raw - under cooked. The wait staff was great and did the usual apology and I assured him that these issues were not his doing and thanked him for his ability to resolve the in-house issues.If you are a single traveler better to avoid this place

The rest of us had a caesar and beer ( specials). Tasty - infant we had two each because the first was so good. We ate outside in a shaded area. It was very comfortable as well as enjoyable!

The patio at this restaurant is excellent! Our friend from out of town really loved the delicious cider they have on tap. read more The patio at this restaurant is excellent! Our friend from out of town really loved the delicious cider they have on tap.
