This used to be a comfy pub; excellent, even, for something attached to a mall. The patio was great for people-watching, service was friendly, and it had the best fried zucchini in the city.

Apparently, people still regularly ask about, but not for, the zucchini -- it's off the menu, which has been updated into a confused chain restaurant's idea of "upscale." It's far from truly horrible, but it leans towards the pretentious and overpriced. It is not nearly tasty enough to rationalise the prices, either.

Service can be pretty good, but is too often non-existent or simply very slow for this to be a reliably pleasant experience.


I do not recommend this place.

A great place to stop for a beer or some lunch while enjoying a shopping trip. Yet the best time to go is for the Sunday Buffet, amazing line up of all foods.

I recommend this place.
