the noise level was beyond tolerable. We ordered drinks, couldn't hear the waitress, and had to leave. Everyone was very nice. The menu looked great... but it was very unpleasant.

This is one of our favorites. Incredible service with no pretention and the food is exquisite. Grab a spot at the bar on a Saturday at 6:30pm and enjoy great cocktails, one of the best wines by the glass menus and just the best food. No scene, no nonsense. Just a great dining experience. Don't bring your

Service was ok, but food so underwhelming. We had two appetizers, one of them was their signature dish (beets), two main dishes (trout and gnocchi) and two deserts (one of them again their signature desert). Gnocchi was probably the best dish we ordered, but everything was just bland, no depth of flavor. and some dishes were too heavy. I just felt ripped off. $180 for two ppl, no drinks, only a $10 bottle of still water. Completely overpriced, less than mediocre food.

Truly exceptional. Attention to detail in every dish. Religious application of local, fresh ingredients. Terrific table service. Flavorful and creative dishes. Not inexpensive but worth treating yourself on occasion.

This restaurant is a real gem, constantly refreshing their menu to offer new culinary delights. The food is exceptional, clearly showcasing their passion and dedication to quality. It's the little things, like the double shucked peas, that really highlight their commitment to perfection. The Mt. Lassen trout was a standout for me—simply unforgettable. I was so impressed by their cuisine that I couldn't resist buying their cookbook.

The tuxedo t-shirt of restaurants. Has the right look but can’t pull off the style. Foods average, like high end home cooked food. Pork was cooked well. Not worth the price. Drinks were divine.

Somewhat hit or miss. Loved the persimmon appetizer, chocolate mousse dessert, and bean soup . Was unmoved by the weird cauliflower Caesar, duck was a little dry, gnocchi were reminiscent of mac and cheese but not better.

The best, and I mean some of the BEST food I’ve had in years! Fresh, creative and the flavors were AMAZING! We took the server’s advice and ordered multiple dishes to share. Family style added to the fun.We were a party of 4 with reservations before 6pm and RC quickly filled. I will say the noise level with all of the talking and music got a bit loud, esp for the 2 older individuals in our party. That’s the only reason for 4 stars for atmosphere.Service was top notch! And never had to ask for anything and we weren’t hovered over either. Perfect balance and excellent service!!!Will definitely be back!
