Wonderful Italian dishes, bolognese and mushroom ragu were excellent. Highly recommend the Farmstand salad. Our server, Nem, was a joy.

Phenomenal - Cocktails, Food, and Bartender.

Will be back.

If you need highlights... The Farmstand Salad was an Heirloom Tomato Salad with corn, cheeses, basil, and pecans and delicious. The bolognese was flavorful and delicate. The Seafood fettuccine was fresh and delightful.

Everything was just perfect.

Just wanted to leave a review saying that there are a lot of gluten free options — we were just told to stay away from the bread and one other dish. Pasta, risotto etc can be made gluten free. (I did not clarify if there’s cross-contamination, but I would recommend calling for that clarity if you need it). Altogether the food & cocktails were delicious and unique. Great decor, music, and service. Will be going back!

Let me begin by saying the food was so yummy that we forget to take pics. We have the bread service and split a Caesar salad. The bread is made in house was absolutely the best light and fluffy I’ve had in forever. The Caesar salad wasn’t the typical Caesar. It was over the top better than any we’ve had. I had the Bolognese. Homemade pasta that is also made in house. So yummy. Hubby had the NY Strip (12 oz) with fingerling potatoes and broccolini. He ate every bite! 😳 he said the steak was cooked to perfection and the fingerling potatoes were crunchy and seasoned just right. Dessert was Honey Pie served with ice cream. It’s like pecan pie except with honey and almonds. So yummy. I cannot say enough about our service. We sat at the bar but we felt so welcomed. Our server Caitlin was amazing. She was so friendly and welcoming. She talked to us about the restaurant, the chef (his background is a baker, he’s been the chef for 5 years) and of course, the menu and our choices. The atmosphere was fun and lively. Would definitely recommend!

10/10 recommend grabbing dinner here if you can. I’m not one to order bolognese but it was delicious as well as the seafood fettuccine. I’ll be returning every year.

Stopped by one night. They were able to seat us in a few minutes. Extremely quaint fun atmosphere. We sat at the bar. Met some friends. Bartender was excellent. Food was unique, healthy and tasty. spicy cucumber appetizer was one of the best I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

We were seated outside promptly, the food was delicious and the wait staff was great.

The rub? The menu inaccurately represents the food. Be forewarned, do NOT assume that because something is marked as gluten free, vegetarian, or vegan that it will be served that way. If you have any dietary restrictions, be sure to ask lots of questions- we won’t be back!

I’ve had a few good meals here. Last night they served us tap water that tasted like rotten fish and bleach combined. Two of us swallowed it before realizing. I would have been happy to look past that if they had comped even one drink on the $400 bill, but they did not. Nor did the manager even apologize. The waiter tried his best.

I will start by saying the food is good, it
was my second time eating here. I am a former restaurant owner and have family restaurant for 25 years plus. Last night we sat down and was served a bottle of “tap water” or so we thought. I took a big gulp and was so assaulted by the taste, it was one of the more terrifying things I have ever tasted… a cross between rotting fish and maybe cleaning detergent. I thought I
had lost my mind and had my partner taste it. He had to run to the bathroom. We told the waiter and asked him to please taste it
He removed it and he and the manager both tasted it behind the bar, I watched. The manager was so repulsed he spit it out and then back washed with what looked like his own personal water bottle. He never came over to the table to apologize or explain or see what he could do for us. The waiter came over and said he could not even describe what he tasted and how powerful and disgusting it was. He offered us nothing to clean our mouths, I had to ask him for something medicinal to swish around in our mouths. If we weren’t meeting my boyfriend’s family we would have left. The food was good. We ate and drank and really hoped we weren’t going to get sick from “The water” However what left an absolutely unforgettable taste in our mouths besides the poison water was when we received the bill, not one dish nor drink was complimentary. We paid a 400 dollars plus bill with no apologizes or explanations. When the manager of a restaurant has to spit out of his mouth something he felt comfortable serving to his diners at his restaurant, there is something really wrong. At least have some guts and good will.

Best Bolognese on the Vineyard, brings us back every year. Be sure to try the bread.

This place was so delicious. Drink service was incredible and included a wonderful rum selection.

Food was creative and delicious. No food allergy issues for me here! Accommodating.
