I had eggs Benedict. Hollandaise was the best I had had in a long time. Unfortunately ambience was at times a little loud - had to really concentrate on what my table was saying.

Friendly cheerful waitress and chef. Nice layout and food was well presented and delicious. The football was on the screen so the guys were happy. Prices were good for the quality and quantity received. The menu had good variety to choose from. Loved our evening.
