  Amazing!

  Amazing people, great outdoor patio space, water bowl before we were even seated. Staff all came around to say hi to our pups, patrons even came by to say hi to them. If that’s the vibe you’re looking for, definitely make the trip.

  Oh, I almost forgot……the food!! Delish!!! Lobster ravioli was unreal!

  Last minute call for reservation.

  Called at 10:00 am and was told 12 noon reservations were the earliest available for a party of two with a dog (border collie weighing 55 pounds) for a Sunday brunch. When we arrived there was only 1/4 of the outdoor seating occupied so I'm uncertain why the reservation had to be noon. Also, the hostess was surprised to hear we had a reservation AND a dog. Apparently whomever took the reservation for noon failed to write it down. Neverthess, we were seated outside (it was nice enough weather) on the center, brick, patio at the furthest table from the rest of the patrons. The table was a table for six and we were seasted at the end table. It was starting to drizzle a little and the hostess suggested the umbrella (a nice, sturdy, heavy, 8' in diameter) be moved to our end of the table and opened. My boyfriend did this as the hostess made no move to take care of it. She left us there to settle ourselves in and the metal chairs were wet from the earlier rain. I walked back to the inside restaurant and the hostess (now on the phone and holding up a finger to suggest I wait) finally asked me what I needed. When I asked for a dry towel to wipe off my chair, she went behind the bar and handed me one (in lieu of coming out to wipe it herself). No problem, I thought, and as I walked back out to the table I noticed there were seat cushions on other chairs so I reached over to an empty table and started to take two cushions off the chairs and bring them to our table. The hostess, who was following me, asked me not to take those cushions and said she would get two more for us. FIne. After I dried off my chair, she set down the seat cushions and I thanked her. She left us and took the towel. After our order was taken and brought to us, the waitress realized we had no utensils nor napkins. She brought us the utensils and napkins but failed to bring us salt/pepper (which the bland food needed). I got up again and walked to a table from where the patrons had recently left and took the salt/pepper shakers back to my table. Meanwhile, my dog, who was panting and thirsty, was never offered a bowl of water. I had to go back to our car and get the portable dog water bowl and dump my glass of water into it for her to drink. Overall, this restaurant was a huge disappointment and not worth the faux wait for a table. I definitely would not reccommend going here with a dog and I would not reccomend going here at all for the food. Live and learn.
