    4.5 This is a delightful and delicious place. We had a party of 8 and all went smoothly. Extra step-we didn’t love the first wine we picked and the server found an off menu wine he thought we would enjoy and we did! Going above and beyond.

    Fixed price, 3 course menu for NYE. The food was first class and our service was great. Nice touch from Chef/Owner to chat for a good couple of minutes and kindly thank us for coming to town and help support the town. Will definitely return to enjoy the a la carte menu.

    Food was well prepared and great. When we arrived they didn’t have our reservation made on open table. It could have been because it was made 30 mins prior to our arrival. They were happy to seat us still
