    Fantastic farm-to-table restaurant in North Aurora with lots of locally sourced ingredients. Fantastic beer, whiskey and liquor selection. Wait staff is top notch and very attentive, courteous and prompt. Farm house decor is very comfortable yet modern with lots of wood beams and exposed stone work. In-house green house is a nice touch that adds to their farm-to-table credentials. The spicy sticky chicken thighs and Asian slaw were very tasty! A real gem!

    Pretty good dinner. Everything is ala cart so keep that in mind. We sat in an area with 4 TV’s one set on music videos that were a little too loud. Our waitress, Mariah was fantastic.
