    The fall/winter pre fixe menu in my opinion is absolutely perfect! Elevated yet comfort food. The French onion soup is no crock of French onion soup. It is more of a meal. The soup had three pieces of short rib and the toast had slices of (I think) Brie! Almost like a cross between beouf Bourgogne and French onion soup. A must is the Bosc pear tarte tatin for dessert. The butterscotch sauce was perfection. For mains we had the grilled pork chop and the chicken breast. Both had wonderful seasonal preparations and were miraculously moist! Service was perfect and the owners stop by every table and are so friendly! A really special place!

    We plan to go to the Inn every year. Once again our dinner was awesome. We both shared the shrimp cocktail appetizer which was delicious. We chose the prime rib which was huge, enough leftovers for two more meals. It was the best prime rib we both felt we have ever had. The service was great too. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. We will definitely return the next time we are in town.
