This is a great menu with great farm to table food. The beet salad tasted like the beets were just pulled from the ground. They were so fresh. I would’ve liked a little more lettuce with a beet salad and perhaps some goat cheese, but it was excellent. My friend and I shared the scallops and the halibut. The halibut was cooked to perfection and the scallops were so sweet and tender. We also had the cheesy mashed potatoes and those were divine. They paired well with our entrées as well. The crème brûlée cheesecake with mandarin oranges was just superb. The oranges added a nice light touch to a very well done cheesecake. I would come here again in a heartbeat. Thank you craft for a lovely dinner.

Everything was fabulous. The sommelier Stephen was particularly delightful. Even though we only had a cocktail and a glass of wine each, he spent as much energy and time helping us decide as if we had been ordering an expensive bottle or two of wine. Food was all amazing— the amuse vouches were as fabulous as the courses. And the view is incredible. Our first Michelin experience- it will be hard to top!
