“Food was delicious. Prime rib was delicious but room temperature. Beautiful place. New owners. The woman spoke in French with my mom which was super duper fun.

Notified waiter of dairy allergy but was served green beans cooked in butter. Wow were they delicious. But I got sick. The chef talked to me at 10:30p at night and is committed to doing better in the future. I will eat there again but will be very clear about the allergy. Delicious food and really nice people!

Dietary restrictions: Failed to accommodate stated dairy allergy of butter on the beans. Received conflicting information as to butter on the prime rib.

Wheelchair accessibility: Long ramp or 5 steps up. Gravel parking lot.“
