    Food was great. Last time I was there for my birthday most of my guest did not like their food including me. This time it was on point. Service is always good and Chef Dan always greets his guest.

    We couldn't have asked for a better meal and dining experience. Everything was so delicious that the five of us completely cleaned our meal and dessert plates. The staff, from hostess to waitstaff, couldn't have been nicer or attentive. This is the place to come for the best of the best!

    The service was outstanding by all the staff. The waiter was exceptionally helpful and friendly. The soups were delicious. The ostrich carpaccio was excellent. The entrees were good but somewhat disappointing for my husband who had the Beef Wellington. Although it was cooked well, the overall taste was rather bland. I enjoyed the crab cakes. This is the only restaurant to have truly gluten free crab cakes which I have wanted for quite a while. The dessert menu was limited so we opted not to have any. I appreciate true farm to table food. The food is generally top notch. This one meal won’t keep us from coming back.
