    The wait to be seated was reasonable. The food took a little longer than expected even though there were hardly any tables taken. The food was delicious. I was disappointed with the small amount of salmon for$25: my ordered burger (ordered without a bun) was bigger than the piece of salmon. The staff were pleasant.

    We sat at the bar on 11/15 from 630-730. The food was great, the service was great, but they really need to revisit their selection of music and noise level. For the average age that was in there, the music was not appropriate and very loud.

    Chef Bree was amazing! The cheese curds were so good along with the dip trio. The service was amazing. We knew we were in for a treat when the appetizers were so good. The food was even better! We got the crispy bowl and pulled pork. The pizza was 5 stars according to my 12 year old son. The cheese cake was out of this world. Yes it's pricey but totally worth it! We weren't fans of mindful brewing so we were cautiously optimistic for this new place. This far exceeded our expectations! We will be back! Thanks for a wonderful night out!
