First time and was very impressed with the beautiful space, delicious offerings and great service (Kasey). Wood fired lamb pizza with asparagus and ramps was creative and done perfectly. Deviled egg appetizer was a unique blend of flavors. Pickled beet salad outstanding. Looking forward to returning with friends soon!

Had a lovely Easter dinner as a family last night. The service and quality of food had the feel of a fancy restaurant without the steep price point I would expect for a meal of this nature. It was a wonderful meal.
