Price wise is average, definitely not cheap but also not too expensive, and the ambience is great! Food was super tasty as well. The only flaw was the staff, most of the employees (the more aged ones in particular) were unfriendly and looked bothered when asked.

Delicious food and live music. Only fault was the service was a bit slow due to how busy they were. But worth the wait!!
