The food was so good. Our family has to eat gluten free and having an entire menu that we could eat off of and was delicious was so helpful. Even if we didn't eat gluten free we would eat here again. Staff was very helpful and the atmosphere was still decorated from the holidays. Only down side was it was a little on the pricier end but glad to support this local business to continue to provide quality food.

why allow me to make a reso at 11 for breakfast if your breakfast menu isn’t available at 11? I came for the breakfast menu, not lunch. Extremely disappointed. The food was good but it wasn’t what I wanted. The service was excellent, but again, I came for breakfast not lunch…with one vegetarian/pescatarian breakfast option. That’s the first and last time I come in.
