    Our waitress Taylor was so attentive and good. We really enjoyed having her as our waitress. We ate here last year and she was our waitress last time. The food was so good. The fried green tomatoes were excellent. This is one of our favorite places to come when we come to Galena.

    Food and service was excellent. Two of the group had the ravioli, one had the walleye and I had the scallops. Everyone really enjoyed their meal.

    A menu that doesn’t try to overreach but rather delivers a selection of solid dishes with enough variety to satisfy any palate. Excellent service, a casual but clean and welcoming dining area. I have had a number of the entrees from the seafood to the steak, chicken and lasagna and enjoyed every one.

    Friendly, helpful waitstaff, gluten free options and ample portions of delicious food! We made a meal of appetizers (carpaccio, steak martini, Caprese salad and not to miss risotto) and walked out with leftovers.
