We went for lunch & shared charcuterie, cheese plate, & Trout Almondine. All were excellent. Our server, Makenzie, was delightful & attentive without being intrusive, and helpful with suggestions. The only negative was uncomfortable chairs. Otherwise, we had a lovely leisurely lunch.

My wife and I celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary and it was a great dining experience. The service was excellent from the moment we walked in the door until we left a couple hours later. There was a violinist playing while we ate. We shared the Caesar’s salad prepared table side, my wife had a chicken dish, I had the lamb chops. Both were amazing. We also shared the Gorgonzola pasta which was perfection. If you’re looking for a fine dining experience, this is your place!

Everything was very good both food and service. My only complaint was our server didn’t offer us the specials. We only knew they had specials when we were done eating and heard them being offered to the table next to ours.
