Andy N.

The restaurant itself is charming and has a nice history to it. Offers steaks and BBQ. Good selection of drinks and cocktails as well. The steaks are okay. Not the best, not the worst. I asked for my steak rare and it came out medium. That's just cardinal for a steakhouse. I didn't make a fuss or send it back, just ate it because I don't believe in wasting food. I'd still recommend this place because staff are quite friendly.
