The food was delicious the desserts are very shareable ( as they are great portions). The service and employees are very friendly and welcoming. Service was fast. Large building with several cozy dining areas and some larger areas for bigger parties.

The common man ranges from 3-4 stars depending on the day. Today we went for some apps and dinner around 7. It was very busy so we found a table in the bar. They may have been understaffed as about 7-8 tables were open but covered in dirty plates. Our waitress quickly cleaned our table which was great. The buffalo chicken empanadas were very good with the avocado ranch. The almost escargot was ok. For dinner we got the chicken sandwich which was tender and juicy. The fries were pretty good. The blackened chicken tacos were ok, but we were surprised that the chicken was just pulled chicken. It was tasty but there was a lot of slaw which took them over a bit. The apple walnut chicken is always a hit and they gave a large helping of mashed, which are also always good here! We love the atmosphere of the bar area and the old charm. Our waitress was ok, much kinder to the group around us than to us and the other tables. Attentive, but not friendly.

Food is not the same. Pot roast was just edible. Room was unpainted and picture hooks remained on the walls. Will not go back to this location.

Meal was good though folks who ordered steaks in group didn't do as well. Beef was a little overdone. But other than that it was good!

Jesse was PHENOMENAL! He was basically entertainment for both our table and the group of women behind us. He embodies hospitality and really enjoys what he does. Very knowledgeable, personable, and customer centric (he even remembered serving us the last time we were there). We did have a mess up with the Kitchen very much undercooking the Salmon, but Jesse handle it with grace and made sure to have his Manager take care of it and he did not make the interaction uncomfortable whatsoever. No one enjoys complaining, but he welcomed the feedback and commiserated with us while offering options to help. Best service, so even though there was an issue with the kitchen quality, I still give Jesse five stars! Give him a bonus, he could sell hay to a horse!

Located in a historic home, with decor that pays homage to our country's founding history. The food is excellent and reasonably priced, the staff is very polite, friendly and attentive. Good beer and wine selection. Free cheese and bread. French Onion soup was amazing.
