Good home cooked food, usually busy but staff are always accommodating and friendly. Age policy gets a bit heated with the youth. Especially when theres work groups and a few dont meet the criteria

Nice ambience and table service was prompt. Compared to two other places we visited considerably more expensive for 4 individual drinks.

Sunday Dinner for me is 5 stars. Top compliments to the chef/cook. Vinny and most of the staff are friendly and just really lovely people who make you feel really welcome. Drinks are a bit pricey but your in town so to be expected I suppose.
