    First time dining here. Our server Holly was excellent,as a matter of fact, everyone working there was wonderful! The ambiance and decor is simply beautiful! We did Easter Brunch, the Lemon Poppyseed with blueberries Waffle was to die for! We do not live in the area, our daughter attends UNCG, so we frequent the Greensboro area, and we will definitely be back! I highly recommend dining here.

    Was really great. Knocked it out of the park with this current menu. Scallops, pork entrees were exceptionally good. Great, understated service.

    This place was across the street from the Marriott where we were staying and the description as a white-tableclothed farm-to-table New American fare upscale restaurant sold us. Overall, it was a good meal. - Scott, our server, was great: knowledgeable and attentive. - The restaurant isn’t as elevated as the description portrays - no tablecloths, and while some tables had a nice tulip centerpiece, our table had what looked like a 3-day-plucked daisy lol.  - I had the lamb chops and the angus ribeye. My friend had the spinach salad, the pork chops, and the apple pie skillet for dessert. The food was well presented and was well flavored. The only real negative was the too-cool temperature for all our hot dishes. To illustrate, the butter medallion on the $45 ribeye didn’t melt at all during the entire entree course; nor did the vanilla ice cream along the side of the apple pie. It felt like the chef had prepared wonderful dishes that had then unfortunately sat under a weak heat lamp. - Prices were a tad steep considering the plastic tables and temperature issues. Overall, it was a lovely meal, and I appreciated their selection of dessert wines. Would be a good option for a date night as long as you are prepared for slightly warm food.

    My wife and I had dinner there on Saturday, our first time at this restaurant. We were pleasantly surprised with how good it was. Not super fancy decor, but excellent food and service. We both had a glass of wine, and they gave very generous pours. We will definitely go back, and will probably bring friends.

    The restaurants staff, ambiance, and service was great. The problem I had with the restaurant the chef was not good and I was highly disappointed in the food. Breakdown. The airline chicken was not brined and was dry with zero seasoning. It was honestly the worst chicken I ever tasted. The appetizer Lamb Chops were burnt and inedible. Plus The lobster egg rolls are a must to order Service, ambiance, staff were great and I want to give credit to them but the chef should consider going back to culinary skills, he missed the mark.
