We went there last night to celebrate two birthdays, and the service was good. They even gave us prosecco for my birthday and my friend’s, which was a nice touch. Since it was meant to be a special birthday celebration, I made the reservation 5 days in advance. The table they seated us at was okay, but instead of the mountain view we were hoping for, we were seated facing the street. Upon entering the restaurant, there was a slightly funky smell. At first I ignored it, but after we were seated, I realized it smelled like they had used an unwashed mop to clean the floors. The food was okay overall, but as a chef, I noticed a few things right away. The oil they used for frying tasted old. You could tell from the fish and chips because the batter was darker brown than it should be and didn’t taste fresh. I also had the chicken piccata, which came with pasta. The dish itself was okay, but again, the frying oil tasted old and affected the flavor. My friend ordered the bison beef and absolutely loved it. My husband ordered the chef’s creation, which included filet mignon, fried shrimp, and soup. Unfortunately, the same issue with the old frying oil was noticeable in the shrimp as well. Overall, the service was warm and thoughtful, but the kitchen really needs to pay attention to the quality and freshness of the frying oil because it affected several dishes during what was supposed to be a special birthday dinner.

Such a fun and beautiful place, classy and unique. We visited on 2/15 to celebrate a birthday and it exceeded our expectations. Tracey was our server and she was amazing, really made our night. Our food was delicious and portions were fair plus our fruit cobbler desert topped it all off. Very impressed and highly recommend it for date nights, girl nights or when you want to go for a nice dinner.

The food was phenomenal from the appetizer to desert everything was a ten out of ten. Kyle was our server he was very knowledgeable about the menu, kind and patient with my family. Kyle service was nothing short of exceptional. I ordered the chef’s soup of the day, yellow tomato bisque, for my entree the braised bison short rib and the cobbler for dessert. My family had three different salads and added chicken and shrimp it was just as tasty for a salad and fulling. The braised bison short rib picture I ate half way forgetting to take a picture.

I wanted to love this. Alas. Check out the Bloody Mary! This is one sip in. Since when is a Bloody Mary served without at least a celery stalk ?! I had the eggs Benedict with bison. It came with a side green salad. No hollandaise on the eggs Benedict! No dressing at all on the side salad. I’m talking greens with some tomatoes DRY. No vinaigrette or anything. I had to ask for a side of hollandaise sine apparently they forgot. But this all started with the restaurant manager greeting us as the host . I have never met a more unenthusiastic host in my foodie life. He walked over like he hated every minute of life on shift, and proceeded to seat us without an ounce of gusto. Getting back to the depressing Bloody Mary. We brought it to our waiters attention (my gin drink also came ungarnished but the Bloody Mary just felt worse) and he said “umm yeah I think it should have been garnished?” So we said can we we least get some olives? 20 mins later he produced 3 olives in a bowl. Not to be mean but, is everyone on site in training? Some pros: The buttermilk pancakes taste like cake and are DELICIOUS. The view is amazing. Aside from that , “that’s all”.
