"Second time here in a couple months. First time for brunch, this time for dinner. Seating is on a first come, first serve basis and they fill up quickly after opening. We were seated outside as our guest was running late. But the heaters outside are very powerful, so we were fine outside. The hostess Mary is the Bomb! Very attentive to our needs and even provided chairs for us to sit in while we waited for our guest. She did her best to hold a table for us inside, but the line dictated she had to give the table up. It was cool though. Service is steady and thoughtful. Always checking on us, but not overly so. Decent wine choices, my how the bottle price has gone through the roof $50. But it was a lovely choice. I may start returning to bringing my own if they allow it. Two guests shared the Beef Tartare which they loved. Those same guests had the muscles and sadly they were not impressed. We brought it to the attention of our waiter, and graciously they removed it from our bill. The fries that came with the muscles were only barely warm and not served with any sauces : I had the pork chop, which was cooked perfectly but the brussel sprouts were almost raw and hard to cut and chew. All this being said, we all do like this little gem and I will return. The chicken looked amazing, that will be my next order. Brunch is quite good. At the end our server brought us all a little after dinner port at no extra charge. They really do care about their guests and make every effort for you to have a good meal and a nice time."
