    As always,the food was excellent although our charcuterie board seemed to be a bit underwhelming. Our server was attentive and cordial and checked up on us to make sure if we needed anything. Love the ambience here and the live music was exceptional. I have another reservation for New Years Eve and am looking forward to our next visit.

    My family and I had a lovely dinner at OBC Kitchen and I doubt I can do it justice with just a few words. In short, the food was amazing, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and the service impeccable. I especially would like to give a shout out to our server, Travis H. for his friendly, attentive service to our party of six on a very busy Saturday night.
