Delicious and good service
Party of nine and no one liked their meal. Fries were limp and almost burnt. Served corn with seafood? Coleslaw was just a very small portion in a small paper cup. One filet was sent back could not even cut it and was very small. Never go back
Server was very engaging and friendly. Great at offering recommendations and checked in at regular intervals. Food was fantastic (salmon with sweet corn risotto and cinnamon toast crunch creme brulee) and the atmosphere was cozy.
Why is there a 2.5% fee for credit cards? I’m growing tired of businesses passing the price of doing business onto customers. The food was fine but really pricey. My daughter’s kids meal was $10 for TWO chicken fingers and fries. We won’t be back.
Nothing beats great customer service, and that is why I’m giving 5-stars. Kitchen hiccups tend to happen, but our server, Tara’s, response was above par! I loved the Golden Hour, it was refreshing, strong, and would order again. Fried Green Tomatoes could be their own meal. They were perfectly crisp, tangy center, and matched well with the whipped goat cheese. Sexy fries—Just do it! Fried pickles are one of the best we’ve ever tried. The bed of veggies that the Mahi-Mahi came on were scrumptious! I made a meal out of that alone. Now for absolute best item on the menu —ESPRESSO CRÈME BRÛLÉE! They make their Crème Brûlée onsite, it was perfect, and the espresso flavor was addicting. We definitely plan to come back!
Atmosphere was great for how crowded it was.
Only thing I’d like to see is more non-fried apps. But it’s not a deal breaker for a date night or dinner choice.
Great cocktails!
I was there with friends the other night and got the brisket BBQ. Most of the ‘meat’ was nothing but fat. There is no way the person assembling the sandwich didn’t notice- served a sandwich of scraps.
This is one of Montgomery County's best kept secrets

It's pretty bad when you have to change your review several times because of the up and down service that this place gives. Just be consistent! Tonight it's just like it's terrible we walk in there the parking lot is half empty and we see two couples walk out finish eating we're standing there for 10 minutes finally a hostess comes out, two of them and ask if we had a reservation and we didn't it's 5:30 p.m..They said well we're sorry we're only taking reservations tonight because we're closing early. There's no sign that says there's only reservations. "I can't give you a wait time and then I said will people just left so there's tables? "yeah but we got a whole bunch of reservations coming in". Parking lot was half empty. People weren't rushing in at 5:30?. She said we can hang out at the bar and see if something opens? What kind of advice is that I don't want to be sitting there with a bunch of people drinking alcohol? Be consistent put a sign on the door reservations only, or hang out at the bar. I had to wait 10 minutes to be disappointed. I will never ever get those 10 minutes back. What were you doing for 10 minutes. People behind us said the same thing.
We normally go to Bella Fiona next door because these two restaurants are in our neighborhood and we try to support local business. But it's like butcher and the barkeep don't want us to. My wife said that that was fine, a permanent closure to going there. Bella Fiona has not gave us one problem since we've been going there.

A little gem close to a few minutes from my home. Can’t say enough about this wonderful small business! Everything from the ambiance to service and food are just stellar. If you’re going to go out to eat, support great local owners like this!
