Located on a tiny crooked little street where you park halfway on the tiny sidewalk and halfway on the street, this small restaurant (seats about 40) and cozy bar (seats about 4) is an absolute delight!! Having eaten on so many places over the years I rarely get so excited about a place so kudos to owner/chef Ken Duckworth!! for... More

First, I left my reservation on their answering machine (you MUST have reservations, this place is a sell-out) on Sunday. Despite the fact that they were closed Monday, they returned my... More

Don't get me wrong, Ken is a great chef who just needs to step back and re-vision what he's putting on the plate. He needs to lighten up and freshen up... More

This is our new favorite restaurant! Chief Duckworth and his team prepare local and fresh food. Variations of seafood, beef, lamb and pork are so delicious that you have a hard time leaving this place again. Most dishes are available as a small variant (and almost 50% off). Staff is friendly, welcomning and makes you feel at home. We'll be... More
