My pre-booked table was right outside the window on the main street, offering a direct view of the performance. I was so excited! I ordered Hggies, lamb, and fish soup, and everything tasted great. Even out-of-towners can enjoy the food.

Food was great. I ordered the full Scottish. My server Bohdan was very friendly, quick and checked in often if I needed anything. I went early in the morning, so it was not quite as crowded
