    Delicious food and awesome service! I have Celiac disease and eating out is not always the best, but i was so pleased and surprised with how easy it was for me to be accommodated, our server was absolutely amazing and so sweet with asking questions that made me feel comfortable eating from their kitchen, not to mention the gluten free Lava cake... INSANE! 10/10 experience and will be returning!

    First time dining here. Holiday decor was wonderful, as was our very knowledgeable and efficient waiter. Ordered appetizers and entrees, with his feedback on our choices. House wine was very good and a nice surprise, since we did not realize the restaurant was byob. Everything was delicious, fresh and served hot - even the soup! Dessert was also great. Only criticism is that the special entree - a fish selection - was overpriced. We will definitely be back. This was a wonder find in the lovely regentrified town of Kennett Square, PA.
