Review from Saturday, May 3rd.

Based on other reviews, this may have been an off night for the restaurant. The service was painfully slow, our server was distracted all night, paying plenty of attention to'specific' tables.

Our first round of drinks arrived 40 mins after sitting & second round of drinks didn't arrive until after our meals were complete (even glasses of wine). We were looking to have plently more drinks but decided to relocate.

The best part of the meal were the oysters. Two orders of cheese plates & gnocchi were subpar. Cheese plates tasted of sour cream with brussel sprouts. The gnocchi was one dimensional with butter dominating any other flavor. Two other orders at our table were cold upon arrival.

Very mediocre experience vs other reviews posted.

Excellent. Really enjoyed our meal there. Our server was absolutely fantastic. Provided some great recommendations for food & wine pairings. Will suggest to friends & family who are in the city to also check it out. The Halibut was some of the best we ever had & the homemade pasta with Norwegian shrimp was just superb. Don't hesitate!
