I would describe the food as "hearty". We went in the middle of winter, and it suited the weather, but I'm thinking that they would need to change the menu in summer to avoid people feeling like they're going to sink through the floor. I loved the ambiance and decor, and the staff were delightful and attentive. It's a great place to go for a lovely evening and a bottle of wine. Will go again (maybe in the summer!). A tad on the expensive side.
