For dinner we had the mountain trout and honestly it was the best trout I've ever had, perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The angus steak was also absolutely mouthwatering. By the time dessert came we were already full, but still couldn't resist the sticky toffee cake and the chocolate bread pudding, and I'm glad we didn't skip them because both were amazing. Everything was rich and satisfying without feeling overly heavy or leaving us bloated afterward, which I really appreciated. Our server was so sweet and attentive the entire night, and the interior of the restaurant is cozy, charming, and just really inviting. Definitely recommend and we'll absolutely be back every time we're in town.

Someone could easily get sick or worse here. The three star rating is for the helpful server and tasty salad.

Ordered a cucumber chamomile gin and tonic, which left something to be desired. We started with the blackberry salad which on the menu said it also included avocado but there was none on the salad-despite this the salad was great. Our mains were good but not great. The biggest issue I found here was despite our server being very nice while ordering she NEVER checked in on us after anything arrived, never refilled waters either. So although she was nice the service was not good as there were times we wanted to order something else and one of the entrees didn't arrive as it was ordered but our server never checked in. All things considered I think I would only come here to grab a salad or appetizer.

I had the Dilly Dally and the Roses Really Smell Like cocktails while my husband tried the Lemon Meringue Flip. For dinner we had the roasted cauliflower and pan seared cod fish. The roasted cauliflower had a nice flavor profile with shiitake mushrooms and castelvetrano olives. We were too full for dessert, but we will return.

The place was packed in the main room, though there's a separate room that they opened up. The staff was friendly and cleared tables promptly to help us find a spot to sit. I believe there were some food options, though we did not order any. We did an old fashioned and a bar tenders choice. Not sure what it was, but it was delicious!! It's dark and moody, with lots of candles. I believe you can also enter through the back. Restroom was very gross... but other than that, a great experience. We were just passing through, but I would absolutely recommend and go back.

It's just too bad they are not located in our neighborhood in Florida!

We got the fish sandwich, tail of two fish and wharf scramble. My fish sandwich looks substantial at first but there were more batter than fish. Every bite I am just eating the crunchy batter. The accompanying tartar sauce was delicious. Their no cost substitute is nice touch. I would say it was a decent experience but really not sure if I would go back given there are many restaurants with similar menu. Our waitress was working incredibly hard. She seems to be the only one waiter serving all the indoor tables. It was late afternoon but still. I've been to restaurants where there were 3 handling same amount of tables and not getting services.
