We had a very nice dinner but we were surprised when we were seated in the bar area. We had made reservations for the indoor restaurant. We should have been advised before we arrived. We probably still would have come as we do enjoy the bar music but it would have been nice to inform us. The bar shaker and bar noise were a bit much for an elegant dining experience. Apparently, there was a large party in the main restaurant--strange for a Saturday night.

We absolutely love the ambiance here! The design and layout of the entire place is beautiful and spacious. I feel like they need a couple more fire pits outside so stay warm by. Its nice to arrive early and have a cocktail from the market around the fires. Grab some farm fresh items and freshly baked treats, sweet little market. The Haven restaurant upstairs is very nice and the service is top notch. The food is most certainly farm fresh and prepared wonderfully. We loved the prawns and hummus apps. I would say the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the meat both times I've been here. The short ribs were dry and a bit gamey because its grass fed, carrot finished beef. And the pork belly was tough and chewy, not sure why on that one. I prefer both to be bit more tender and juicy. The wine list here is also fairly eclectic, perhaps a few more known wines could be added. Other than that we enjoy this place very much and will be back to try more dinners!
