    Good food, good pricing for HappyHour. Website does not mention HappyHour at all, a notable error. And it's only in the bar area, a major change from our 6-7 years there. Server was friendly and tried hard though, a definite positive.

    Elk chop is novel, tasted good, but $74 is steep. Erin, our server, was amazing from the jump! She was great!

    Delicious food. Wonderful service. Would eat here again. My halibut portion was tiny (2 or 3 oz.) for $40 and did not come with salad or bread. But, it did taste delicious.

    The food and service was good. The table was small and tucked in a back room. Could use some background music and pictures on the wall.

    This restaurant was on the Food network. I tried the boar schnitzel and my wife tried the venison patty melt. Both were cooked well and tasted great. We also had the warm beet salad which was great. The double elk pork was a highlighted item but it was $75 and too big of a meal for me. The double pork chop is available and much cheaper. The inside was decorated very nicely.
