This restaurant has a very warm and nice atmosphere, despite most of the areas are bar, the music was not too loud. We ordered oysters, margarita pizza, honey wings and fries. They are all very good and big portions. Would recommend for people looking for good quality food with understandable price! (The $3 oysters is so yummy!)

Came here on Valentine's Day, so my experience may differ from others who went on days that would be less crowded. We had a reservation and were seated promptly at our scheduled time. There is optional coat service. It was obviously very crowded with all the Valentine's dates, but all the staff seemed to be moving like a coordinated team. The service was definitely 5 stars. I got the Amish half chicken and my date got the quinoa farro bowl. I thought the dates and the harissa sauce paired very well. The chicken itself was good on the outside but a bit dry on the inside. My date found their quinoa farro bowl to be a bit boring, and felt that some of the ingredients did not pair well with each other. However we both loved the polenta fries. Overall we had a good time, and the service was outstanding considering how busy it was that day. I will try to come back to order the monkfish.

Found this place on a Monday night. Atmosphere A+, service A+, food was an A+, we were lucky enough to get one dollar oysters, which tasted so fresh and the brine was perfection. I suggest trying the Brussel sprout pizza and the Pappardelle Bolognese. This was our first time here and we will most certainly be back! Great service by manuel

Friday night, was lively. Seating was quick and ordering was easy. Seemed like more of the college crowd but was perfect for us. We order burgers and they were tasty and prepared the way we ordered. Variety of beer options. Service was excellent.

5/5 for the mussels, 4.5/5 for the lobster tail (very fresh) and 4.5/5 for the calamari. We were here at 4pm and this is the seafood before the dinner menu comes out. Always satisfied with all the options!
