    Just OK

    Not anything special. Food was okay. Service was good but nothing special. Prices were reasonable. The beer bread and butter were very good. Other options in town should be looked at.

    Mother’s Day Brunch

    The food was high quality and delicious. The brunch is expensive and there aren’t a ton of options. However, what they have is uniquely delicious.the best lamb I have ever had in a restaurant.

    Amazing menu, amazing food, farm to table concept.

    Had a business dinner here and it was great. Large selection of wine, bourbon/whiskey and local beer. The food was unique and outstanding. The wait staff excellent and attentive. It’s attached to the Hilton so it’s very convenient.

    So so food, great service

    I thought from looking at the menu the food would be quite a step better than the reality of what arrived at the table. I ordered the Roasted Half Chicken for $23 which came with a shallow scattering of supposed Herb Roasted Mushrooms (couldn't taste...More

    Nice to Support Local Farmers...and Great Cheese Curds!

    Went with a friend to eat here because we both liked the idea that this restaurant buys from local farmers. It's a good idea to support local places. The food was quite good. We started with something I actually dislike: cheese curds. But our waitress...More
