First off, let me say how CLEAN this place was. I was very impressed by that and the cozy atmosphere immediately upon entering the establishment. No wait time, friendly staff, and lots of seating options. I got the lobster roll and my husband got the steak frites- we both took some home! Great portion sizes for the price. Everything was absolutely delicious. We will be back!

Maybe the best. No, the best French onion soup I have ever had! A refreshing salad and a lobster risotto just hit the spot. If you like unique cocktails, look no further. One sip and takes me to my happy place. Will be back for sure

We experienced a great brunch with Brandon. I went with the recommended brunch burger. It was perfectly cooked and delicious!!. My mom got the lobster roll and was in heaven. It was whole lobster pieces!

Went here for our anniversary. We were seated promptly in a cute, private booth in the window. Our waiter was fantastic. Super friendly, helpful & professional. He was the only one waiting tables while we were there but he didn’t seem overwhelmed. My husband got the Char burger & loved it. I got the steak frites. The steak was done the way I asked and it was delicious. However, I asked for a side of asparagus… I got 5 pieces of asparagus for $8. I think that’s outrageous and had I known their sides weren’t priced reasonably I never would’ve ordered it. We got the chocolate cake for dessert. The cake was amazing with the pecan ice cream! They offer a $10 2 oz whiskey pour in Wednesdays so we got that as well. Very good pour of old Forrester! That was a good deal but all their other normal whiskey prices were a bit high. The only other thing that I thought was disappointing… And this isn’t a big deal but I miss the days when restaurants went above & beyond to make your special occasion celebrated. A free glass of champagne or small dessert used to be the norm. I even told the hostess it was our anniversary when I made the reservation. But I didn’t deduct stars for that, that’s just a side note. Stuff like that does make a difference.

Food was delicious. I enjoyed the menu selection. They have a build your own bloody Mary that could be accented with items as high tier as lobster. Only wish they had a kids menu, the portions of items even split in half was a bit more than we needed for them.

Food is more expensive than what you’d expect for the atmosphere. Drinks were good! However, food wise, they make everything sound delicious and fancy on the menu, and then it comes out and just tastes sort of… off? It’s like they’re trying too hard to make things unique and they just wind up tasting slightly bad. The buffalo cauliflower tasted like it had a bunch of celery seed in it or some other flavor that just turned me off. The rosemary truffle fries had such an overpowering herb flavor that they were also hard to eat after a few bites – and I love rosemary and truffle so I’m not sure why that was the case. Not sure if it’s just what we ordered or if everything is off. We’re local so may come back at some point but will probably try different food next time.
