    Wonderful food and wonderful service. We had a reservation right when they opened and arrived a few minutes early but it was freezing and they welcomed us right in. My son had the salmon and said it was awesome (he’s very picky). Highlight had to be the baked Alaska for dessert!

    Food and presentation a cut above the competition. Our party of 4 enjoyed a variety of brunch offerings, with the braised beef gnocchi dish particularly noteworthy. We finished the meal with the French Toast of the day - cinnamon and pear - a real treat! My only criticism would be the coffee - it was brewed a little weak - not clear if it was specific to that particular pot or reflected the beans used. While we did not order any brunch cocktails, we noted some interesting offerings on the drink menu and well prepared drinks being consumed by others. Strongly recommend a visit for brunch, lunch, or dinner. There special price fix dinners and lunches are also noteworthy.
