Hands down the best place in Ithaca for an elegant lunch.

This was our fourth visit, and once again, they didn’t miss! From the excellent service to the management and impressive bar staff, we’ve been consistently impressed. The food arrives quickly and is always fresh and warm. The cocktail menu is great and the bartenders are highly experienced and can craft a cocktail tailored to your preferences, as long as they have the ingredients and know the recipe (to be fair I should say some bartenders simply because I don’t know them all. But there is one in particular who wears glasses. EXCELLENT!!!). I highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for great food, drinks, and service. When you have a hard time differentiating the staff from management because both approach you with attention and care, you know you’re in a good place! 💯💯💯

Good overall experience, the food and the service were about average. Definitely try the triple fried potatoes!!

Food was good- my steak was over cooked but still quite flavorful. My mother definitely enjoyed herself- and since it was her birthday, that’s all that really matters!

We enjoyed a beautiful Mother's Day Brunch. A beautiful place with a nice assortment of food.
