We had a great meal with exceptional service. The atmosphere was very welcoming and cozy. The background music was nice, and we could still have a conversation without feeling interrupted. This was our first time being here and we will be back.

As it was Valentines we were told that we had a 2 hour window to eat as they were so busy, the place wasn't busy. The food was awful, chicken parmigiana was spaghetti swimming in juice with a breaded chicken patty on top, not made in house. The seafood dish my partner ordered was gummy pasta and very little seafood. We stayed in a local BnB and the owner said that she steers people away from eating there as she gets many complaints from guests. TO BE BLUNT: IT WAS ABSOLUTELY CRAP FOOD

Great service and staff, food was cooked great. They do however have a steak labeled as a rib eye that clearly isn't that cut of meat. This is most likely the owners and not any of the staff, so I didn't want to give a bad review as everyone we dealt with was great.

We had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the ambience immediately stood out—warm lighting and a comfortable layout that made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening. Ideal for both a casual dinner and a special occasion. The food was excellent across the board. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor, clearly made with fresh ingredients and attention to detail. Everything arrived at the perfect temperature. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in both quality and consistency. The service truly elevated the experience. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu. Our server checked in at just the right moments and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Overall, this restaurant delivers on all fronts—great food, outstanding service, and a fantastic atmosphere. We would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Enjoyed a delicious family meal. Great service and friendly staff. The ambience was lovely with the woodstove burning. We especially enjoyed the spinach artichoke dip and haddock!

Our first time eating here We did not feel rushed. We took our time and enjoyed starters and a drink, and wine with our meal which was all delicious. It was a very open space and we found it a bit cold because of the high ceiling they had a wood stove, but didn't do much to heat up the room, but it wasn't too cold that it interfered too much with the enjoyment of a good meal where we were sitting I would recommend a fan on the ceiling in order to push down the warm air that's rising. Tables a bit too close that I could hear the whole conversation of the next table. We were going to be seated in front of kitchen doors where it was very noisy. They moved us a bit more away and noise was down a notch Food was delicious. Service was excellent. If we were to go again I would ask for a table for away from the kitchen, and maybe in the booth that had seemed to have more room from the next table.

The air temperature in the restaurant was cold, had to leave coat on to keep warm, warmed hand from tea light candle on table, our warm food was cold by the time we were half way through. We were experiencing freezing temps outside but that's no reason for the interior to be so cold. We would have stayed for desert but need to leave to warm up.

Great atmosphere. The warm beet salad was delicious. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable and warm. Will be back.

We had a lovely evening , nice to go to a restaurant with some ambience and not trying to rush you out the door . Nice amount of time between courses . It was loud when we first arrived around 6:30pm , so it was hard to talk to our friends but other than that we had a nice meal . Food was delicious !!

3 out of the 4 people at our table had arancini and the New Year's special . Arancini had no marinara sauce and was dry. The braised beef pasta dish was awful. Pasta was way undercooked and the beef was pretty much puréed. Not appealing plate in looks or taste.

Susan

Chicken Parmesan was very thin and overcooked with burnt edges. The pasta was very good. The bread at beginning of meal over toasted. The bread served with dinner was grilled and had burnt taste. Not sure we would return, but if we did we would definitely not order the chicken Parmesan.

The food and service was good. The restaurant itself was very cold and we had to keep our coats on to stay comfortable. Looking around I saw that many other patrons also had their coats on. This put a damper on the experience for sure.
