    This is probably the best "high-end" restaurant I've eaten at in Novi. The food is absolutely exceptional, especially the Rasta Pasta. I still dream about the cajun sauce. The chocolate cake was delectable and when I asked for ice cream with it, they gave us 3 scoops! The drinks were also fantastic and extremely well-made, especially Maple's Gold Rush. I'm not a huge fan of bourbon but this was delicious. I just wish that my dirty martini came in a martini glass :( Our server was so fun and kind, and the overall energy of the restaurant was wonderful. My only suggestion is to improve the advertising for the restaurant since when you drive by it, it looks like a house, not a restaurant. I would also suggest starting an Instagram account! I'll do my part by posting this restaurant on my socials :)

    Great service, they understood we like to take our time. Olives and Brussels are solid options. Solid set of wines and the whites in the market are available cold for dinner! Will be back!
