I've always passed this place when in the area, and I finally had some time to go inside and enjoy an early dinner with my wife. It's a nice pub inside, nothing fancy but it was comfortable and relaxing. We were there during off hours, so it wasn't crowded. I had the chicken cordon bleu, fried dumpling, and my wife had the salmon dish. Everything was top-notch, and we left happy knowing this place is an option.

Great local spot. The food is very good with lots of menu options. I’ve been going here occasionally for the last 8 years. There are two different sections of the restaurant: The tavern side is more noisy, drinks, sports games on tv. Sometimes they have karaoke on weekends. The restaurant side is quieter with more seating. Very cozy. The same menu is available for both sides of the establishment.
