If you have not been to Sunday brunch here in a while, the chef continues to change up the menu & offer several creative new dishes. Do not miss the Croque Madam!! The in-house made brioche bread, combined with fresh Gruyère cheese makes this a memorable choice. The new Apple Crisp dessert is also a great new menu addition.

We had an excellent set of staff waiting on us and they were very attentive. The food all the way around excellent from the steak to the fish types, salads, and appetizers. That beet salad never fails to disappoint.. We had friends from out of town were wowed by how good the steaks and fish were. One thing we’ve learnt is we will never disappoint company bringing them here and we thank you for that

Everyone was just lovely particularly to my 92 year old mother who’s birthday we were celebrating. Special thanks to our waiter Gabe and everyone in the kitchen who handled mom’s special needs with such grace. I truly appreciate it and hope to dine with you again soon. We have been coming regularly and you have become our favorite place for celebrations. Mrs. Stephen Lehnhardt
