**Mixed Experience – Hoping It Was an Off Night**
Visited on 7/24. We left feeling both relieved and disappointed. Relieved that we didn’t splurge on the higher-priced entrees, but disappointed that what’s advertised as the “best burger in town” fell flat.

The pork sliders were tasty and well-prepared — definitely the highlight of the meal. My wife’s fig pizza, however, was a letdown. The figs were burnt to the point of being inedible, and when we brought it up with our server, we were told it was part of the caramelization process. Unfortunately, these were more rock-hard than caramelized. That said, the crust and toppings (cheese and bacon) were flavorful, though the large pile of arugula on top didn’t quite work and felt out of place.

As for the burger — it was dry and overcooked, with the bacon barely noticeable and a tough shallot slice that didn’t add much.

On the bright side, the live music was enjoyable and the bar had a nice atmosphere. It’s possible we caught the kitchen on a rough night, as we noticed two other tables also sent food back.

In the end, for the price point, the food quality just didn’t deliver. A local passerby even mentioned she avoids the place, though admitted it’s the better of the two nearby spots.

We won’t be rushing back, but hope this was just an off evening.

I was impressed by every detail from the salt shakers to the sourcing of the food to the owners putting their names on the receipt. I haven’t been to enough Michelin restaurants to know how close this would be but it’s gotta be close. If you’re looking for heart, soul and care in a restaurant experience, I think you can find it here.

Really nice small town restaurant to come and try out if you are in the area, the staff is so welcoming and nice they make you feel right at home , the owners of this restaurant also own a few cabins down the road that are absolutely amazing on air b&b to stay in for a weekend getaway . Besides that the food in the restaurant is very fresh and farm to table , Highly recommend !!!

Aroma Thyme is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated—perfect for a relaxed evening out or a special celebration. The quality of the food is consistently impressive, but the standout for me is the seared tuna—hands down my favorite dish. It’s perfectly prepared every time and absolutely delicious.

Their wine selection is exceptional, and Jamie and Marcus’ expertise shines through in every recommendation. You can tell they genuinely care about curating an experience, not just a meal. Every visit feels like a treat. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience! Go there for a wonderful culinary experience, knowing all food is clean and natural. Even the wine was unsulphured and excellent. Go there any time you are in the area, you will not be disappointed. Hopefully William will be your server, he is professional and knowledgeable, having a knack for recommending the perfect drink or food item.

The first time I’ve ever had grilled calamari. Incredible (and well-plated) !!

Also has mussels and the shrimp + lobster roll. I don’t even like mussels and I ate several of these…more than a handful.

They definitely have a way of playing up the flavors without relying on a bucket of grease. Lots of complimentary dips and dressings. I think my favorite thing of all was the potato salad, which came on the side of my lobster roll. Potato salad is a new love for me, but wow, this restaurant has practically recreated the concept. It’s simple, the perfect mix of creamy and chunky, and the flavors are so smooth. I would go again and literally eat a bowl of potato salad if it were on the menu

The most impressive part of this restaurant, in which I unfortunately did not partake, was their wine menu. Extensive pales in the face of this book. I really wish I could have sat there, enjoying the shade, and looking through the wine bible all day. But I didn’t even touch it. I didn’t want to tease myself, knowing that I shouldn’t indulge fresh off a hike and under hydrated.

I found this place randomly after a Long Day on the road, I was passing through the area and Thisbplace is a hidden gem! All farm to table with an extensive wine list, I was welcomed right in and I chose to sit in the back patio courtyard with my kids, it was peaceful and the meal was beyond my expectations for the area. I had a Ribeye and didnt leave one bite on the plate. Highly recommend, the staff was so friendly and accommodating. If I'm ever in that area again, I will Definitely return for another meal! It really was great!

THANK YOU WILLIAM! This was some of the best food and drink I’ve ever had, and I live in NYC 🫣 no seriously—the asparagus with fresh mozzarella, prosciutto, hazelnuts, and balsamic made me want to CRY WITH JOY 😭 and the forager burger left me staring at it incredulously and vibrating with happiness 😍😍😍 William’s recommendations for the fancy cola my friend loved and his delicious Yuzu Vanilla Daquiri (so strong, so good!!) were spot on, and thanks to his encouragement I’m bringing my whole family back for my birthday ❤️ thank you SO MUCH for such a lovely, lovely meal!
