Merry's Rating: 4 stars
Merry's Comments: The food was delicious but a bit on the expensive side ($10 for and appetizer portion of scallops), the atmosphere was nice and the service was prompt, except when we wanted the bill, both to review and to have picked up with the $$$ for signature/change. The waiter forgot to take the $1 off the appetizers, but for $2 we decided not to question it.

Merry's Comments: Happy hour is available throughout the establishment not just at the bar. The appetizer menu is pretty extensive and the drink prices were exceptional. It was a little noisy though, but it was a busy night and the wait staff was hustling! Service was quick as was the food delivery, but don't get your hopes up on the food -- it was just average in taste/quality.
