One of our favorite restaurants. We love the delicious food, wonderful service and quiet and cozy atmosphere. The popovers are fantastic!

Farmstead Table was an utterly charming experience for our anniversary celebration. The Garden Party cocktail was lovely, and the pork belly with cauliflower puree was heaven on a plate! The decor is warm and casual, with the simple farmhouse lights and framed needlepoint rings on the wall. Our servers were very friendly and helpful. I often find a lot of background Christmas music annoying, but the album that was playing was very mellow and enjoyable (it sounded a bit like Simon & Garfunkel, but our waiter told us it was a different group). After spending a few evenings shouting at friends at super loud restaurants with obnoxiously loud music playing, enjoying the quiet conversation with my husband while eating superbly prepared food was a sheer delight.

Chef Amada is quietly performing culinary magic on a regular basis. We are devoted regulars at Farmstead for the healthy, creative food; warm staff; and comfortable neighborhood ambience.

I requested a quiet table due my hearing disability and the table was perfect. It was very quiet at the beginning of brunch and got a little nosier as the restaurant filled up, but the noise was never a problem. The service and food were great. We didn't feel rushed - I don't think they needed the table and were happy to let us linger. Overall, a great brunch.

Dining at Farmstead table was a delightful and delicious experience reminiscent of cozy meals at home with friends or family on an elevated level. The food was hearty, filling and yummy. The service warm, friendly and attentive without being overly intrusive.

Delicious food and attentive wait staff. We had an early dinner so started the only ones there, but filled the noice level increased Very plain, rustic so ambiance was just ok

The food was interesting, and we liked that the kitchen would split dishes so we could taste a variety of options.

Ellie

Always a great meal in a perfect little neighborhood gem of a spot. Very creative dishes, If you're lucky enough to see it on the menu, get the Mushroon Board!

We always are very satisfied here. The food is always fresh and well prepared. There is a good vegetarian and fish selection. The featured wines are always quite good. I enjoy the low key ambience. The service is almost always professional and helpful. However, at our most recent visit last evening, while everything else was up to the usual high level, our primary waiter seemed very green, unfamiliar with the menu, and awkward. I assume that will change.

We ate, for the second time, in the beautiful back area surrounded by grape vines. The setting was relaxing, the food delicious, and the waitstaff attentive.

Good great. Thought the amount of wine per glass was very small given the price of a glass of wine.

Food is excellent, Jacob is the man, it was really cool when E.C. Amanda asked us how the duck was and to learn it was a new addition to the menu. Awesome team, great place!

We unfortunately did not have very good service here. We had the bartender as our server though we were seated at a table and she completely forgot the drink order she took. Service was extremely slow the night we were there. And .. although we had indicated it was an anniversary dinner on OpenTable there was no mention or acknowledgment of it from the staff (it's possible that OpenTable doesn't share that note to the restaurant but then why even ask in the app) We ended up wrapping our meal early after apps and moved to Thistle and Leek which is just a few restaurants over to have dinner - amazing service and food.

Fabulous meal... such interesting and well-prepared dishes! Meal was well-paced and unrushed. Service was professional and warm. We appreciated that nice attention was given to our reservation request. We will be back!
