    Fantastic old school atmosphere with current upscale menu and attentive service. Julian served us and knew the menu well and timed courses perfectly. Cocktails were prepared to order and wine list is impressive. We tried the amazing smoky corn purée soup, fried oysters, beet salad and duck breast - all delicious and presented beautifully. Can’t wait to return.

    Our favorite ! Cozy and elegant all in one. Top of the line cuisine with our chef checking in often. Don’t miss the oyster appetizer , fish is off the hook, but the brisket burger is also to die for. Sara and Libby shine. Just love .. date night ❤️

    Very good food. Rotating seasonal menu. Good variety of dietary options, however a solid vegetarian or vegan dish would be an improvement upon the current menu. Drinks could use a bit more alcohol-seemed a bit stingy w the rum. Tree nut heavy menu at the time we were there.

    This was our first visit after driving be many times and saying "we need to try that sometime." Now we wish we'd started years ago! The food was delicious - boneless ribeye and their "signature" donuts served tableside. Our server, Julien, was attentive and thoughtful, even putting ice in a plastic bag so we could keep our leftovers cold while we attended a concert. All the staff were friendly and quick.
