    Alleged cinnabon. Who ate the rest of it???
    Trouble M.

    This is a small tavern with a single chef so the wait was rather long, easily 45 minutes just to get our appetizers and another half hour for the mains. I tried the fried chicken which was a bit overcooked and not juicy, although it tasted fine. Sides were yummy, smoky beans, fluffy cornbread, coleslaw with a touch of cumin and the collard greens had a touch of sweetness. Wifey had the hamburger which she said was really delicious but her one side of sliced potatoes were cold when they got to the table and it was so busy there was no use asking to have them heat it up, it would have taken another half an hour, so that was very disappointing, they just weren't good cold so she didn't eat them and brought them home. I ate a lovely milk chocolate pot du creme for dessert, it came with a crispy lemon tinged shortbread cookie. I'd ordered a cinnabon to-go for the next morning and was quite surprised to open the box and find it looked like someone had eaten all the layers of the bun and left me the middle and then threw in some chopped apples and cinnamon topped with whipped cream for a consolation prize. I'm sure I'll heat it up and it will be warm and gooey and delicious but I've never seen a cinnamon bun that looked like this. This was our first time here and I would definitely come back to try other dishes. It is fairly pricey, about $150 with tip for 2, with $36 of that being the bar bill. The wait staff and bartender were very, very nice. We wouldn't eat here regularly it's far too expensive, plus we make most of the menu items ourselves at home -- steak, burgers, tacos, even pan fried chicken -- and I do like to eat food I don't normally cook for myself when I go out, but it's definitely a nice night out in a lively place.

    One of New Englands'a best restaurants. Causal feel with wonderful food. Worth the trip for both the setting and the meal.

    Great food and atmosphere. Perfect place to bring at date. Better to make a reservation not a lot of seating.

    Way too loud and severely understaffed. Waited 1:45 hours for our entrees to arrive By then they'd run out of NA beer.

    We stopped in for dinner last night before heading to the Roomful of Blues concert, and…read moreunfortunately it was a very disappointing experience. Our server seemed overwhelmed from the start. It took nearly 30 minutes just to receive two PBRs, although I will say the price was surprisingly reasonable at $3 each and the pours were generous. After we finally got our drinks, another 30 minutes passed before the server returned to let us know our food would be "another 15 minutes or so." At that point, we decided to leave. The restaurant was not especially busy--there were a few occupied tables, but certainly not enough to justify waiting over an hour for a salad and two appetizers. That kind of delay simply should not happen. What made the experience worse was the staff's response when we raised the issue. Rather than showing any concern, the attitude came across as dismissive and indifferent, as if our frustration was an inconvenience. Needless to say, we left without ever getting our food and will not be returning. Just a note the table next to us mentioned " Yeah this place can be hit or miss"
