I went here for my anniversary with my husband, our food was amazing, and our server was so nice! It ended up being such a wonderful way to spend our night!! For appetizers we shared the shrimp special which was very good and refreshing! For dinner I had the surf and turf special. The meat was cooked to perfection and the potatoes were to die for. The lobster was also amazing!! My husband had the fillet as well with scallops and they again were also delicious!! They know how to season their food for sure and their plating looks like it’s from a five star restaurant! I definitely can’t wait to go back!

I’m surprised at many of the negative reviews this restaurant received. My wife and I ate here for the first time tonight and found it to be an exceptional experience even when compared to other elegant restaurants in this category. First off, walking into the restaurant you are greeted by and aesthetically pleasing decor that sets the tone for a relaxing, unique and enjoyable meal. The service was prompt, attentive courteous and most importantly accurate. The food was well-prepared exactly to order and was absolutely delicious. We live a couple hours away and were traveling for business. We both agreed that it would be worthwhile on a Saturday afternoon to drive down to bring our family to this uniquely amazing restaurant. Thanks for a great experience.

We came here for our anniversary. First timers. The surroundings, food ,and waiting staff were all phenominal. I cannot say one bad thing about this establishment. My husband had the surf and turf, and I had the game platter, both which were cooked perfectly. I can say , without a doubt that everything including the drinks and on to the entree were cooked perfectly and served with kindness and expertise. Our server was very proud to work there and had many opinions on the selections. We will be back! Thank you for a wonderful dinner!

Beautiful restaurant with a very unique menu. The new executive chef was a contestant on Bravo’s Top Chef and trained under Bobby Flay. Try the Baked Goat Cheese, it’s amazing! Be sure to ask for Thomas as your server! Love having this wonderful restaurant in Cleveland, TN.

When I went I ordered a medium rare steak and Brussels sprouts and they gave me a very black and crispy, burnt steak with black Brussels sprouts, so charred and blackened they had no original flavor. I’m not one to complain, but I had to get them to remake my food because it was inedible. They were understanding about my request. I’ve never went back.

Atmosphere was nice with a good sized patio under cover. Service was slow at first but was better after we ordered. Menu was simple which is a good thing but the food was just ok. I had the chicken and waffle and the best part of the meal was the syrup. Waffle was good but the chicken had a very basic bland flavor with the breading almost tasting overcooked. My girlfriend had the filet and it tasted no better than a $10 steak that you buy at the store. If it was priced at ten bucks you wouldn’t hear me complain but for what they charge I expected more. I would recommend you give it a shot but I doubt we will be returning anytime soon.

The new chef is terrible. Changed the entire menu and it is average at best. The mashed potatoes were the best part. Ordered the cheesecake to go and was not told it was a deconstructed dish and barely edible. Small portion sizes for the price. At least the drinks were decent. If you want a good meal worth the price go to Connors in Turkey Creek.

We ate here recently as part of a large party.. We expected a slower service, because of the size of our group, but we were so disappointed by the experience. We were there four hours! After the dessert was served it was 45 minutes before we got our bill. Between courses we experienced significant waits and the waiters forgot the drink orders and had to be constantly reminded. in addition the entree orders were served to the wrong people. Also, the serving sizes were so small! The scallops were excellent, but there were only three on the plate! for $60! My “6oz fillet” was the size of a large egg. The family style sides were good, but who serves mashed potatoes and fingerling potatoes at the same meal? The decor is wonderful, but don’t eat here unless you are ready to pay big bucks for small (but excellent) portions.

Very disappointed that the restaurant known for its wild game dishes no longer serves such. The food was good but overpriced for what we got. The service was not elegant as during past visits. The server kept reaching across the table to pick up things and brought us over cooked rolls without butter. He actually said that the delicious bread basket that they used to serve was too expensive to continue serving, quite odd given the prices we were paying. We expected more in the way of their traditional fare and the excellent service we had experienced in the past.
