It was my third time there. We went there to enjoy a good song. The Wintergarten Orchestra was playing and was really fun. They are so theatrical... I really enjoyed! The service was amazing. And food was perfect! I really recommend who loves music to enjoy weekends there!.

This establishment is truly amazing! I have been coming here for years! From the Food to the Service to the Atmosphere! The food is always fresh and delicious. The atmosphere is ALWAYS inviting and decorated to the season. The owner of the restaurant, John, is a man of integrity and hosts a Customer Appreciation Event during the Christmas season absolutely free to his loyal customers! He prepares a buffet of hand selected impeccable menu items, has a DJ spinning tunes into the wee hours of the night and provides free gift giveaways to all! I don't know many owners of restaurants that give back to their customers the way this establishment does. The bar service is excellent and always fully stocked! If you are looking for a restaurant that offers excellent food, drink and nightly entertainment, look no farther than this place. If you are a lover of Latin dancing like I am, then you must come out on a Tuesday night, enjoy a great meal, a drink and dance the night away! I would give this place 10 stars if I could!! Thank you SMOKESHOW!! Eleonora

July 20, 2024 at 8:30pm - met with friends at this local pub because we heard they had a live band. This place did not disappoint! First, they had a Summerlicious dinner menu for only 35. I ordered the Organic Beet Salad, Grilled Salmon and Sticky Toffee Pudding....DELICIOUS on all 3 dishes! Hubby ordered the Crispy Calamari, Grilled Angus Striploin and Warm Churros. Absolutely tasty! I don’t know who the chef is at this place but will have to come back to try other dishes. The beet salad was well dressed, and the combination of strawberries and beets was savoury, topped with a sprinkling of goat cheese was mouthwatering. Would have eaten another bowl! I can go on and on about every dish, but you’d get bored. The photos don’t so it justice since the live band was playing at the time so lights were dimmed. Can I tell you now about the live retro 80’s band??!! The ultimate reason to come on retro Saturdays. Oh my gosh!! Had me eating and dancing at the same time. Classic 80’s tunes that everyone in the bar was singing along with. Overall an AMAZING evening of laughs, tunes, drinks and dancing. What more can you ask for?! Will DEFINITELY be going back and bringing more friends

Very good food (I recommend the stake and toffee pudding). The service was also great! Extra orders got put on hold for 30 minutes but the staff where very accommodating. We were even able to get 2 extra desserts. Lots of tvs to watch the game.
