I hadn’t been in a few months and walked into the new barroom and was amazed! It’s beautiful! Greeted by friendly staff and seated in one of the elegant fireplace rooms. I always have trouble hearing in restaurants and the acoustics were incredible! Fantastic service and great food, cocktails and wine selection. Also the only local place opened on a Sunday night! I’ll be back!

I wish I could eat here every day, and I wish I could give more than 5 stars! We are always blown away with how delicious everything is! The menu is constantly changing yet they are able to keep their staple items that everyone loves! Our expectations are exceeded every time we go in. Very friendly and happy staff in a warm and comfortable environment. Best restaurant in VT!

Wonderful, creative dishes with lots of locally-sourced ingredients, attentive (but not too attentive!) service, all in a beautiful setting. Highly, highly recommend this gem of a restaurant to anyone traveling to or near Burlington, Vermont!

This is a great restaurant! Chef Robert is excellent. Actually, the entire experience was fantastic, from drinks to dessert. The place has great vibe, often with nice folks who come often. Leslie was our main server again, and she’s awesome. We eat here a lot and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Soup was delicious, salad was fresh, pasta definitely al dente, complementary bread was tasty and well paired with entrees. Fire place burning , table decorated with fresh flowers and candle light was romantic.
