Went on a nice afternoon and sat on patio which was nice.On the way in noticed the entire kitchen staff outside smoking. This should have been a sign of things to come I think.Inside ambiance consisted of TV blaring sports which seems to clash with their menu significantly. Trying to not be a pub but that is all it really is. The patio was nice though.Waited well over an hour for the meal. As I was going to the bathroom after about 50 minutes the waitress asked me as I passed by her station about one of the options that I had ordered. I think she forgot the order.When the meal arrived we were all very underwhelmed to say the least. With prices in the high teens to mid-twenties per dish we were expecting something significant, either in the way of portion size or quality. Unfortunately neither were satisfied.The homemade fish and chips didn't really look homemade and had one very small sad piece of fish and a sea of cheap fries surrounding. Nothing else on the plate.The wild mushroom ravioli was also a tiny portion and it tasted like my first attempt at making homemade pasta: too thick so that what you feel in your mouth is a chunk of dough instead of a fine coating. I think they need to roll the dough a little thinner!Lastly, the half rack of ribs. This was by far the most complete meal of the bunch with a baked potato and fried veggies, but the meat was pretty sad. Very fatty, so much so that I had to leave half the plated volume on the plate.I'm not the worlds best cook but every single item that we ordered could have been done better if I had cooked them at home myself. That to me is the mark of a poor dining experience, if you don't feel that they did anything better than you could do yourself and yet you come away paying close to $100! Stay away from this restaurant.
