    We had a fabulous meal, weather was perfect for sitting outside and holding a puppy. Server was super friendly and knowledgeable, sadly I don’t remember his name. We’ll be back!

    Dinner with family; not a big entree menu but diverse. Quite a few Italian items. Fried pickle, pepper and bacon app was very good and shareable. I took the servers advice on the trout dish and wasn’t disappointed but a few pieces of asparagus with it would have been great. Refills came quick which I always appreciate.
