Very nice place with good food, pianist and friendly bar tender and servers. Easy street parking. Everyone enjoyed their meals - salmon, chicken, veggie burger and pork chop. We will definitely do it again!
We frequent this restaurant. Definitely have had changes in kitchen and service. We often meet friends or business guests here. Will rethink that.
Food was delicious, Brian was excellent per usual. Bummed that the lobster mac is going away but the chicken gorgonzola was awesome and we're looking forward to seeing the new menu!
The atmosphere was better than expected for a “hotel restaurant.” We wanted a place with live music to celebrate Valentine’s Day, and we were not disappointed. It was very laid back and clean. The piano was fantastic and at the perfect volume. We had no issues holding a conversation while music was being played. Meech, our server, was one of the best I’ve ever had. Friendly, attentive, and great at helping us choose different food and drinks. The regular menu was a little on the smaller side but they also had a special holiday menu that we chose from. My only complaint, and why I can’t give it 5 stars, is that it was a tad overpriced. With drinks it came out to about $100 per person before the tip. So, just be prepared for the check because those drinks add up quickly.

Our server was great. Drinks were strong. Food was delicious. Piano was at the perfect volume to still have a conversation at the table. I would definitely like to come back and stay at the hotel connected to the restaurant.
Only three tables served, so everything was slow-motion. Fairly good, new server; other staff were not at all welcoming. Salads are large, but lobster mac small portion at $17.50 was very small indeed. Chicken entrée was good-sized, well prepared. Prices are a bit high: $90 with tax and tip for basic meal without dessert.
Great food, but what really stands out to me is the outstanding staff; as a frequenter of the hotel, I have enjoyed the nights I get to dine here. Bryan, Meech, and Julie are all great servers and Sam does a great job at the bar. I would recommend making a stop here.

Best staff ever. Felt like I was catching up with my family, they were all so kind, conversational and hospitable. Drinks were perfect (ask the bartender Shawn about his artwork). Food was decadent and full of flavor. I highly recommend this place.
Wonderful bartender excellent and fun server the whole experience was casual relaxed and absolutely delicious
On the corner of Main and Market St in a beautiful old building. Great atmosphere. We had the honey pork rib chop and chicken gorganzola. Chop was fantastic, about 1 1/4 inch think and cooked to perfection, and the mushroom risotto was the best ever. Chicken gorganzola was excellent with a butternut risotto. Service was top shelf. Of course, this comes at a price and it's worth it. This will be our special occasion goto restaurant.

What a wonderful hotel and restaurant!!!! Very classy place. The restaurant located in the hotel was top notch. Food was excellent, both quality and quantity. If I could rate the atmosphere a 10, I would!!! The restaurant had a wonderful ambiance. It was quiet yet there was also a singer/entertainer. It was a perfect mix of relaxing,, quiet, cozy and entertaining.. Service was good as well. The only negative is I asked for no cheese on my chicken sandwich and it still came with cheese. I always say, more power to the server if you don't write the orders down, but if you don't write them down,, you better get the order correct. Anyway, I peeled the cheese off as best I can. But that is minor compared with the entirety of the dining experience. I was here on business, but I will definitely be back for a pleasure visit!!!

We stayed at the hotel and decided to have a nightcap. We were a little hesitant due to it being a Saturday night and not one person in the place. Unfortunately didn't get to try their delicious looking food bc the kitchen was closed at 10pm. But what a surprise to meet the bartender, Doc. He was super knowledgeable and you can tell he loves what he does. The drinks he made us were killer!

We came in for breakfast with my husband, and the waitress was very welcoming! The coffee was amazing and she told us it was from a local coffee shop. The food came out quick, and it was one of the best breakfasts I had in a long time! Everything tasted fresh and the price of everything was very reasonable. I wish I would've found out about this place sooner since I'll be coming back here again!
