    Had 3 piece fish and chips. Don't know where they got their fish, but it was white and flaky. For this time of year, that's impressive. Have always had great meals here. Food was served quickly and waitresses were very professional and polite.

    The servers were medium to okay personality-wise, I came in around 8 though so that makes sense as the dining room was closing closer to 10. The food was good, my boyfriend and I shared wings and a chicken stir fry, very flavorful, filled us both and was reasonably priced. We got a beer each- decent selection on tap, and a neighboring table gave us the rest of their wine. All in all, a successful venture.

    Our server was very friendly and service was fast. It was a delight to find vegan desserts on the menu as it was unexpected. Also, a beautiful view from our table.
