What a delightful experience. Our food and cocktails were both delicious. We started off in a bright quiet speakeasy that eventually evolved into a darker room with background music. Great service, fun location. We'll definitely be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Manor at Silo Falls. We started with the ceviche, and my husband had the Lobster Ravioli, and I had the Crab Cakes. We were going to dessert, but they were out of what we wanted. So we just had our espresso. This plave is very nice and the server was very friendly.
