   I truly had a terrible experience. Our waitress was completely inattentive. I ordered a whiskey sour, which got put in a martini glass and tasted awful. The artichoke dip was okay, but it had crushed red peppers and some other flavoring that made it just not taste "right." The chips were beyond overcooked. The "hickory smoked" wings were Asian BBQ and again were not horrible, but not as expected either. We ate our appetizers and left.

   For offering a special high end meal for Valentine's Day, there was nothing in the ambiance which leaned into the special day. No decorations at all. A cheap electric candle on the table had a dead battery. No flower or simple touches on the tables. Our server was not familiar with attention to details when bringing the courses to the table. Twice we waited for the correct utensils to arrive so we could begin to eat. The food itself was worth the experience, but the ambiance and service were lacking.

   Our server was great, as was the food. Great ambience, could hear ourselves talk. We were very happy with our meal.

   The dinner menu was...lacking. The lunch menu seems more expansive. The wood fired pizza(only restaurant in Battle Creek to offer this) was just ok. The space itself is beautiful with great views of the downtown area.

   Server was very attentive. Cocktail well made. Food we ordered came as presented in menu. Flavoring not exactly as expected. Not bad, just not traditional. Fresh ingredients were well selected. Can tell the chef put time and attention into their signature tastes.

   If your looking for a place to take someone & not hear a word they say.... then this is the place to go. Food was good, service was good, just couldn't hear anything not even the server at times.

    We had a party of 5 and all ordered different entrees so that we could sample each other's. All the dishes were grrrreat! The service was very attentive and the bartender very accommodating with our questions regarding offerings. My only feedback would be to maybe add some baffles to the ceiling as it was difficult to hear each other's conversations. Will definitely be back :)
