    Went expecting the set menu for Thanksgiving but they had run out of Turkey by 6:30. We were able to get the starters, sides and dessert from that menu just no turkey. So we ordered off the menu and the entrees of steak and salmon with shrimp were excellent. Everything cooked perfectly and very hot. The one vegan/gluten free diner was accommodated with veggies and was told which ones wouldn’t work as they were cooked with meat broth . They also had a couple of dessert options. The server was very helpful but seemed somewhat inexperienced forgot to bring and decant wine until after bread and first course was served. Coffee came way before dessert. But in his defense seemed like he had many tables to be responsible for and doing it mostly by himself. The manager came to apologize for the Turkey shortage and sent us home with a couple of their pre packed Turkey takeout meals complimentary so that was very kind. We enjoy this restaurant and will return just probably not on a holiday.
