Sat at the bar and had excellent service. Me and my partner both ordered the handmade fettuccine Alfredo and loved it… not usually something I order but heard it was a standout item and did not disappoint. Vibe was good, would definitely return next time I’m in the area

Still my favorite restaurant around. Great food and friendly service. You can wait at their sister bar next door and bring your drink over too. They have free wifi. Went at 5pm on a Wednesday and the wait was 30-45 min for 4 people.

Wonderful place, Molly our server was absolutely amazing. Her timing, attitude, approach and ability were great. The food was stunning, every dish was great and the timing of how it came out couldn’t have been better. Again, wonderful place will definitely be back.

They don't take reservations. Waited about 35 minutes. The pork shniteel was wonderful. The garlic mashed potatoes were not very garlicky. The mud pie was fantastic. Overall great experience.

Not your standard " meat & potatoes" menu. Small plates, different offerings daily, and a creative delicious menu crafted with fresh, local ingredients. Open 4pm to 9pm, no reservations. I recommend you arrive in the parking lot about 3:45pm. The dining room and bar seats are full in less than 10 minutes. However, particularly on a weekday (this place is open year round) if you arrive around 5 or 5:30 to 6pm or so, you should get seated within maybe 15 minutes or less. The owners bought the next door and after a try at a coffee/bakery, which was wonderful, they've added a full bar with
an appetizer menu. You can walk right thru to The Central now. Forget what new part is called (maybe The Bar Next Door lol). All in all I'd give it 5 stars (or is it 4? Whatever the top # is).

Parking: Tons of spaces

Such nice people that own this place. Kristen treated us so nice as we at outside with or dog Rascal. She even made the dog a special treat. The food was perfection. We ate there twice while in York Maine. We ate at the Bar side of the restaurant.

First time here. Food was delicious, but if you are ordering the soba noodle dish, and add chicken, be specific grilled/fried. I didn't specify and got fried. Don't get me wrong, it tasted delicious but I couldn't eat it for fear of stomach issues. Great drink menu.

What a find! I was not expecting much in this small town, and when I pulled into the strip mall location I expected even less, but what a surprise! Beautiful restaurant, lovely smells coming from the open kitchen, warm lighting. The food is very high quality and fresh with a nice menu. Service felt like family restaurant. The people dinning there all seemed happy to be there, as were we. I would highly recommend this place, and support it. They do a great job here.
