    For a holiday, service was exceptional. George was our server and was quite attentive. One entree- Filet Mar did not come out temp as requested, but they quickly took away and replaced correctly. All entrees were wonderful, Lemon Chicken Dijon superb. Save room for dessert, Banana Foster was quite good. And my friend loved the turtle cheesecake. I tried the Eddie Merlot Specialty coffee and it was sooooo good.

    Christmas Eve, near empty restaurant. Food tasty, service outstanding. I thought the menu could use a few more options. My draft beer could have been a lot colder. Overall, pleased given the day of the year. Hats off to the dedicated staff.

    We came over to check in about 15 mins before our reservations and we were seared immediately. Everyone was so friendly and polite. The place was decorated beautifully. We love the fairies that come around to the table no matter how old you are. They were so sweet and make the experience even more enjoyable. Our waiter was wonderful so attentive, never having to look for him, always refilling our glasses and providing prompt and friendly service. Food came out quick and was very good. We never felt rushed. We were able to go by the tree and take pictures. It was just a fabulous time. We had our first experience there last year and now we’ve made this an annual tradition. We look forward to many more years to come.

    First time here. Tremendous blend of tastes from start to finish ! We tried 3 unique cocktails and were not disappointed. The Fig Carré is my favorite. For starters the Potted Carrots and Shaved Butternut First timers & Squash were delicious! Of the pastas our favorite ended up being Stuffed Farfalle with Pappardelle coming in 2nd. The rainbow trout was excellent & light. We so enjoyed every taste! The butter cake was THE BOMB. Service was attentive and top notch . Was exceptional culinary experience.
