Leaving this revue is hard. I had high expectations after being recommended by a local to try this establishment. We canceled other reservations to do just that. Upon arrival it's a rustic quaint little place off the country road with a warm not to bright feeling when you enter. It was colder out so their fire was going it was fairly busy. All was seemingly great so far. Was welcomed than seated promptly to end up with the waitress that obviously we were a burden to. As not one time did she smile. Sounded like it was a hassle to say the different specials and salads for the night. When suggested this place I researched their website not google to see the menu. Venison and duck wasn't available as per their own website. Ok, that's understandable. It was the sourness of the reply with no real follow up or suggestion towards something else. Refilling drinks were almost obsolete as well as her attention to customer satisfaction. Unfortunately the only thing appetizing at the time was the pepper corn NY strip. Not that it wasn't cooked to great taste and as ordered because it was. But the entire experience with the waitress left me and mom turned almost bitter over it. No appetizers, no dessert, and didn't come for a steak that I should have been able to get at a local chain restaurant that was $59 by itself, and oh it came with mashed potatoes. Yay! Sorry for the sarcasm. Yes, it is a jab. Didn't receive even a thanks and come again or we appreciate your business. Waitress i believe her name was Michelle. Which I won't. If your reading this and feel I might be a harsh person, please feel free to read my review on anything else and you will see I'm not usually this cynical. I pray you at least have a better experience for the monies and time you spend expecting a joyful time.

Very consistentParking: One of the few places (higher end restaurant) that has a paved parking lot. Really appreciate that in mud season.

We had the best celebration of my mother’s birthday at this restaurant. The food and service were impeccable. The menu was so varied and had something for everyone, I definitely want to come back and try other things on their menu! Tammy was our waitress and she was fabulous, she made my mom feel so special and even included a surprise dessert. Thank you to Tammy, the rest of the staff and chefs! Highly recommend this restaurant to others.

We tried to make a reservation for dinner 3 nights in a row but my voicemail from the first call was never returned and I was never able to speak to a person despite their message stating they were there after 2 o’clock. Must be they didn’t need our business, because nobody even bothered to return my call to tell me whether or not there was availability. I could have gone in person but I’m not going to beg someone to eat at their restaurant. Oh well!

One of our favorite restaurants in the area. Michelle, our server, as usual did a great job.
Waited 20 minutes at the entrance for a table reserved in advance, returned the same dish 4 times before the kitchen got it right.Which could be forgiven if we were offered some accomodation, just so we wouldn't feel so disrespected.Totally not worth it.

And too long a wait for a table reserved in advance (20 minutes standing at the entrance) as regulars were immediately greeted and seated. Which could be forgiven if we were offered some small accomodation. Like a drink or dessert, just so we wouldn't feel so disrespected. So not worth what they charge.

Nice ambience and good food but absolutely clueless about gluten and providing gluten free options. My husband identified himself as having a significant gluten allergy and the salad had croutons in it.The staff needs to be educated about food allergies and the menu needs to include gluten free options.

I just got back from a trip to St. Martin in March where I ate escargot almost every day. The escargot here was by far the best I’ve ever tasted from anywhere!
