The historical structure dates back to the 1800’s and has been restored to the original Queen Anne style. With rich dark wood and the architectural detail of the décor, it truly takes you back in time and creates a memorable dining experience like no other.

The experience was awful. The restaurant was closed, and OpenTable let me book a table and ruin my date. This restaurant is permanently closed. I expect OpenTable to give me my hundred points anyway very disappointed!!!

Rachel was our waitress and explained the specials and offered drinks and appetizers. Her recommendation of the cream of chicken artichoke soup was spot on. I ordered the NY strip and my wife the ribeye. Both came with a vegetable medley and baked potato. The steaks were flavorful and the sides were delicious. Rachel even brought the chef out to introduce himself. Rachel then explained to us that the restaurant is closing. I have eaten here numerous times and have never been disappointed. For the price, the quality of the food is well above the chain steakhouses. It’s sad to see another family owned restaurant close.

We went on NYE so the menu was fixed, no one told me this when making a reservation. 4 course meal for $50 so the price was not bad but the meal was TINY! only a few options to choose from and being pregnant I had slim pickings due to a lot of the food not being cooked well (prime rib and cocktail shrimp) Only really had one option to choose from. My ravioli was ice cold after waiting 1 hour for food! My husband asked for ranch for his salad because the only option was balsamic and the server said they don't have ranch today.... I'm sorry if were paying $50 for a super small plate of food, you cant accommodate ranch for a salad that was lettuce and onions only! Should've came with croutons and cheese but the server told us that it as a typo on the menu, but the table next to us had croutons and cheese! THE SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE! I know it was NYE, but if you're taking reservations only you should be prepared with enough servers especially if the menu is slim items such as desserts couldv'e been prepared beforehand! We had a babysitter and took WAY longer than expected! Our dessert took 45 mins to come out, A piece of chocolate cake and what was supposed to be cheesecake, was pudding falling over on the plate. WHAT A WASTE! NEVER again, do not go here! save your time and money there are so many other great places in DT Plainfield!

Service poor - we waited extremely long for drinks, bread, water - waiters kept bumping our table set in a corner booth they had to pass to serve the bar area. Apps were good but both of our entrees were cold and the meat chewy & tough. We didn’t even stay for dessert which we paid for. We noticed other people getting up and leaving. Not what we expected for upscale dining!

Our server was phenomenal considering they were overbooked and under staffed. The food was lower quality than normal, which was disappointing for the holiday. However the martinis were fantastic and our server was very attentive considering.

Service would be ok if food service wasn’t so slow. Took 3 hours to have a simple dinner. Restaurant wasn’t even crowded. Mixed drinks weren’t good. Food also was just blah. Won’t return and can’t recommend restaurant. Server was very friendly and nice but service was horribly slow.
