    Had Dinner there Friday March 14,2025. Was looking forward to having a Great dinner. Very wrong. The Greeter and Waiter were very nice. The menu was terrible. A one page, 2 column with Shares and entrees. Cocktails were not well listed to reflect what they truly were. Myself and My Out of Town quest had the scallops and mushrooms. Again the description suggested Scallops as the main food. the plate came with 3 scallop shells laying on greens. the entire scallop shell was covered with mushrooms with sauce the looked like mud. Had to wipe away the sauce to get to the scallops (they were good) the sauce was not. Not very appealing looking at mud covered scallop shells. My husband had the shepherds pie. Not like any shepherds pie I ever saw. All the meat was ground up in the mashed potatoes, no taste at all. When I told the waitress about it, she was gong to take the pie off the bill. (which she did not). Was able to talk with manager about the problems with our dinner, he was very glad to listen to our issues. and Thanked us. But all in all I would not recommend this restaurant at all. Need to be able to see a menu on line, all the ones they have online do not reflect the food they serve. And even with a 100 gift card, the bill was over 200.00. definitely not worth the money.

    This was a fantastic experience. The food and service was top notch. Our server Abbey was an outstanding friendly personable server. It could not have been a better time for our Galentines Day dinner. Can’t wait to go back again.

    Staff was super friendly - led by Maddie our server. Nice having the Manager roam the restaurant and have meaningful conversations with customers. Food was really good (nice crust on my rockfish).

    Molly and I absolutely love this restaurant and have dined here probably 15 or 20 times over the last three years. Megan is an amazing restaurateur and we always enjoy talking with her during our stay. She’s a very special person.

    It was the worst dining experience that I have had. Our server had the personality of a rock, the ambiance was awful, and the menu selections were pitiful. Everyone who worked in the front room looked like they had just crawled out of bed. This once was a beautiful establishment with a gorgeous aesthetic environment and fantastic food and service. I know it is under new ownership or management, but they have fallen from what was a place where I was able to make it my go-to for special occasions to never going back again. So very sad......

    Always great food and cocktails here. We had a reservation, admittedly on valentines day, and got sat about 45 min late. The staff were very nice and apologetic about it and we ended up at a beautiful corner table. The food was good (escargot, scallops, shrimp/grits, seafood mac)! The server was very friendly but was clearly struggling to keep up with orders and timing of things because of how busy they were. Not entirely his fault. We will most definitely return on a non-holiday.

    It pains me to leave a mediocre review. This is one of our favorite restaurants for special occasions and it has always been exceptional. Our Valentine's Day dinner--not so romantic. We arrived for our reservation and once seated realized our table was not just wobbly, but rocky--didn't need a matchbook to steady a leg, but a major workover. The staff were extremely apologetic and tried to fix it. When they could not, we got moved to the bar area. Unfortunately, the bar area was freezing--again, a really attentive staff member adjusted the overhead fan for us, but it was still cold--and as we were seated right next to the bar, the room got more and more boisterous. So much so that we could not hear each other. Not at all the cozy dinner we had hoped for! The food was delicious, as usual, the staff was friendly and accommodating, but the evening was not what we had hoped for. Left really disappointed in a go-to restaurant.

    Seat was a hightop in drafty indoor/outdoor section. Ate with my coat on and still cold. Reserved a standard table? Drinks good, service fine, no bread; wife's meal, seafood mac and cheese, tasteless, not fully heated. Management tried to make it right but have eaten there before and had higher expectations.
