    Beautiful property. Gorgeous scenery. We were the only ones there so we had the whole place to ourselves. The waitress could’ve been more attentive. The eggs Benedict were served with regular bacon instead of Canadian bacon. The salmon was cooked to perfection and the risotto was creamy and probably the best I have ever had. The prices were on par for a specialty restaurant. Would love to return when the area has a pulse.

    We were not offered the complimentary bread and dip. When we realized it did not come automatically we ordered and it came just before the meal with not much time to enjoy with the wine. We ordered salads which we thought would come prior to the entries but did not. We ordered ribeye steaks but they were sold out and our only steak choice was top sirloin. There were at least two large parties and this may have affected the service we received. The server was friendly and nice but our overall experience was not good.

    Hi Gerald, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize for any lapses in service during your visit. We have addressed the situation with your server to ensure they are fully aligned with our service standards moving forward. We also regret that the ribeye was unavailable during your visit. In its place, we featured a T-bone steak alongside our sirloin, and we hope that you were made aware of this option. Please rest assured that we have shared your comments with our kitchen team, and they are actively working to ensure the quality of our dishes consistently meets our guests' expectations. Once again, we appreciate your feedback and are committed to making improvements based on your experience. We hope to welcome you back soon.

    We were there for Sunday brunch. Besides other guests, they were serving a very large group while we were there but service at our table was still excellent. I had the brisket hash which I have enjoyed on previous visits. This time it was tasty but a bit dry. We enjoy eating in this lovely environment and recommend it to everyone.

    Our server Tyler took great care of us. Our food was great but the steak was a bit overcooked. The garlic mashed potatoes and desserts will easily bring us back.

    The table beside us was very loud! It totally messed with the atmosphere of a date night. Maybe place partitions to all more personal atmosphere for couples that did not want to hear a lot of screaming from 5 ladies.

    Tori was our waitress. She was so sweet and made our experience fun. We both had the table side Caesar salad, spaghetti, and table side bananas foster. Everything was excellent!

    The ambiance was marginal. The decor was sparse and dark. Lighting was stark. The food was adequate. My pasta was barely warm. I sent it back to be reheated. The taste of the pasta was good! The wine pairing with the pasta was excellent! My husband’s ribeye was tasty, the vegetable was very crunchy.

    I took my wife for a dinner date. The food was excellent, as well as our server Ema. She ordered the Gorgonzola Steak Pasta and I had the Grilled Ribeye. For dessert she had the cheesecake and I had the bananas foster. We will definitely come again.
