   We went for a special event and the food was cold and not as advertised.

   The set menu for our event was excellent and abundant. A very enjoyable evening out with friends. We will have to return to sample their full menu as this first visit was very enjoyable.

   I really wanted to love this. I’ll start with the positive. Our waitress was wonderful, all staff we interacted with were fantastic. The band was a really nice touch. The lights were very bright, wish it was a bit dimmed for the evening event. But the venue in general was clean and pretty, The food… first, the portions were crazy large… I would have cut it in half. Nothing was seasoned. I was more disappointed with the main. Many of the dishes were not seasoned…our main the potato’s were hard and not seasoned, the cabbage unseasoned. I had the mushroom dish which was unseasoned. The charcuterie board was prepared beautiful, but our scallops were warm, our oyster stater was dry and warm, we felt sick after eating. There were nice things on the charcuterie board, but a lot of the seafood, just seemed like it sat out for awhile. The lobster was very good. I loved the dessert. The dessert was the highlight of the meal. I am not sure if this was a timing issue of getting dishes out and so ours was just out longer. And it was a large group dinner. I’ve never eaten here before so I have no baseline to what the food is generally like outside of this.

   Great service. Nice calm ambience. Hubby loved the beer soup and ribs. The four cheese pasta was dry and unappealing.

    The food was fairly good. The blackened chicken was spicier than any I have had before but was still good. I was disappointed with the side vegetables, though, it was like a sixth of a bell pepper and 1 baby carrot size amount of julienne cut carrots. Honestly, though, the French fries were AMAZING. I haven't had such good fries in years! They could do with a better drink menu too, they don't have much variety for people who may not love the overpowering taste of alcohol. We didn't love our seat either as we were against a wall directly facing like 8 other tables so we felt like we were watching others eat and it was uncomfortable for us; otherwise we had a decent night and would go back at least for the fries haha.
