About the restaurant

We believe in living a clean, natural and organic lifestyle mirroring that of the old world, where people eat only local foods. Most of our ingredients are certified organic and we source from local farmers to promote sustainability. We want to showcase how fertile the Southern Oregon valley is and the amazing bounty available from local farmers.

We're excited to share our wine and food knowledge with Southern Oregon. We want to educate anyone willing to learn on wines of the world as well as how they compare to local wines. We will strive to constantly create new menu items and wine pairings.

Starting off with phenomenal service we were explained how the menu worked for the fondue experience. We had the smoked cheddar and port wine and Swiss cheese both were flavorful we added sides of the fruit and button mushrooms which were perfect addition to the bread. The entrees were fresh and flavorful - we had seafood , vegetarian and steak cooked in pho broth and tomato broth each with their unique flavors. We finished with Black Forest chocolate fondu all around an amazing meal and great ambience
