Group of 3 people for dinner. We were welcomed nicely at the door. We were seated upon arrival and the restaurant was not busy. I was a little surprised as we waited a long time before we were greeted by our waitress. It was approximately 15 minutes. The table next ... to us arrived 10 minutes after us are greeted and served water before us by the same waitress. We enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. We order calamari for an appetizer and it tasted good. We had 2 orders of their ribs and fries and 1 order of their mussels and fries. The portion of their mussels was very generous. They tasted okay. Their french fries were cold and flat. As fries cool down, the water starts to move out of the crystals and you loose the fluffy texture. I did not want to ask for other fries as all our plates had fries that were served in the same condition. The only way to eat them is to load on the ketchup, and then it becomes acceptable. As for their ribs the only thing you could taste was the sauce that was slapped on top of them. They were extremely dry and had no taste. They were not easy fall of the bone. Ribs should be cooked at low temperature and slowly. These ribs were cooked on high and fast, and they became dry. Remember this for ribs, low and slow not high and dry. I would not recommend this restaurant based on their service and terrible food. For the prices they charged, I would have expected better service and better food quality. This is my honest review that should warn other clients of my experience. I will never go back to this restaurant. Read more

It was a very enjoyable meal. All the dishes that were ordered were cooked to perfection and portions were large! The wait staff was very friendly and helpful.


Food was good, the seafood linguine were kinda plain, duck was very good and so were the frog legs, calamari was good also but it’s very hard to miss. Although it’s not the place with the best or special food, our family likes to go there but my personal opinion ... is that the food taste kinda bland. Also the seat and everything is destroyed, maybe they should change the seats… also saw a small bug on it looking like a bed bug…maybe they should cover them with an other material… Read more
