We stopped in last minute and was so thankful they got us in. One of the best meals I’ve ever had. The squid ink pasta was bursting with flavor. It was a dish I couldn’t stop eating but didn’t want to end.

The bacon wrapped dates were good. 3/5

The salad with orange slices and nuts in it was amazing!! Highly recommend.

The shrimp was delicious as well!

7/10 on the old fashion.
10/10 on the blueberry muffin beer

I enjoyed the smoked salmon dip and shoe string fries appetizers. The salmon dip was unique in that there wasn't alot of filler and no cream cheese. The fries came with asiago dip which was unique in that it had lemon in it. The molasses chicken was cooked to perfection but it really wasn't a flavor I'd try again. There's no sides with the entrees except the burger that comes with fries. My son loved the burger and I'll probably go back to have it myself. The lava cake and ice cream dessert was really good and enough for two. The entrees are not coming out all together which they warned us about. I appreciate the cooked to perfection aspect but I really couldn't afford to drop the bucks for most of the other entrees.

I deliver here and most the places I deliver, I would not eat at. This place tho.. not only would I eat here, but I do eat here. The kitchen is so dang clean, I'd put my plate on the floor and sit down and eat there....

I recommend this place! Good food, nice staff and damn well cleaned!!!!

Service was great, Most of the flavors are delicious. The scallops had an aftertaste that was unpleasant and wondered if close to pull date due to an ammonia smell. I was disappointed that I had made a reservation- one for my birthday and one noting my mother had mobility issue. The hostess originally sat us in one of the furthest back tables squeezed into a table next to three families with kids that were crawling on the floor, hanging in the chairs and noticeably loud. We asked if they could find us another table- and she looked, cleaned one where guests had just left and reseated us. There was no mention of happy birthday by the servers or hostess and it felt unfortunate as we had selected to come here for a special event. If the comments section on then reservation isn’t going to be incorporated into when the guests arrive, maybe don’t allow for the info to be added— as it did impact our overall experience
