The waitress was awesome and on top of it, she gave us her recommendations and went into great detail for the dishes we were potentially interested in. The chips were really good, the cream cheese dip that comes with it was very creamy, and not overpowering. I decided to get the mushroom crepes as a starter. They were thin and crispy, the mushrooms were well cooked, the onions are nice and caramelized. For my entree, I decided to get the Chicken Milanese, the chicken was thin and crispy chicken, the side salad accompanying it was a nice addition. The potatoes were nice and crispy. One of the big highlights was that the chef came out and gave advice on crepes - I never get it right!! I'll be trying again soon. My friend enjoyed his meatloaf, said it was tender and the gravy sauce was nice. Very delicate dishes. I'll definitely be back here to try out more dishes, and definitely recommend trying this place out.

The panko shrimp were large with a crisp outer crust, the Santa Fe burger was flavorful, and the haddock was cooked perfectly. I had a Bissell Brothers IPA and a Trillium IPA. Both were great beers, but they were served in the "fancy glasses," and after checking the volume against a pint water glass, it was clear they weren't full pours. The Trillium was roughly 12 oz and the Bissell around 10 oz. When I asked, I was told they change the volume based on alcohol content. At $9 a glass, I expect a full pint unless otherwise stated. To show the difference in pour size, I took water from the pint‑size Coke glass and poured it into the "fancy" beer glass they used for my IPAs. The fancy glass filled up, and the water left behind in the pint glass is the amount of beer you don't get with their short pours. It clearly shows the fancy glass only holds about 10-12 oz, and the remaining water in the pint glass represents the missing beer compared to a full 16‑oz pint. Essentially, a 12 oz pour means you're being shorted one‑quarter of a beer. At that rate, a full pint would cost $12. And with a 10 oz pour, a full pint would work out to $14.40. Everything else was excellent, but the beer pour practice feels misleading. Most people ordering draft beer expect a pint, and the menu doesn't indicate otherwise. Great food and service, but the beer pours should be clearly disclosed. I recommend eating here, just ask for a pint glass!
