All around excellent experience; atmosphere, dining & service.

On 2/20/2026 Kay had this to say:
Everything about this place is fabulous - the perfect date night spot & I love that it's locally sourced, farm to table! Really wish I could try other things on the menu, but I can't not order the filet! It is melt-in-your-mouth-like-butter tender, the smashed baked potatoes are drool worthy, & the lemon blueberry cake was, chefs kiss! 💋
