With no exaggeration, one of the best meals and service anywhere. Chef Fearing and team did an amazing job on their Christmas Eve - 3 course menu. You have to experience the quality and flavors there to get a meaningful appreciation. Top quality, all around!

A Christmas tradition for me and my family! Very e joyable experience. Typically I get the famous pork chop however the Prime Rib caught my eye. The prime rib was well cooked (med rare). I will say I was expecting some Smoked flavor however the prime rib had an extreme smoked taste which was overpowering. I ate around most of the char, but in my opinion and those of a couple of us, you should cut back on the smoke preparation for the prime rib. We will definitely return and I will definitely return to the pork chop selection! Thank you for a wonderful Christmas Eve meal/tradition. Michael Oney

We had a nice quiet evening for our Anniversary celebration. The restaurant also had an entire halal menu which is great for Muslims! The food was amazing, we had the fried calamari & shrimp appetizer, the stuffed fried chicken, the 8oz filet Oscar style, and creamed corn. Everything was 10/10! The restaurant has a cozy, romantic atmosphere definitely recommend it for date night vibes!!
