We were seated immediately. Nice table in the side dining room. It was nice sitting in the quiet room. Thanksgiving menu was perfect. Cocktail was served beautifully. Dinner included everything needed at the holiday. Boxes were offered to take home leftovers. Sherry was nice, efficient, and cheerful. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

It's a lovely place, food is great, owners are very friendly and welcoming. Only negative feedback I have is they charge a credit card processing fee if not paying cash. I worked at American Express for 20 years, so I'm sensitive to additional fees being assessed when venues benefit greatly from accepting credit cards to increase their business. But otherwise, everything is great here.

Food was interesting. Flavors somewhat unexpected, but great tasting. Drinks were great. Waiter was great! Pleasant and attentive ! However our main entrées took a while, which made us rush at the end. We would not mind the wait if we were not greeted by a hostess with “ enjoy , you have until 7. As we have table reserved for someone else at that time”
