This is a unique place for Preston County, but it really wasn’t worth the drive. The service was really slow, some of that was anticipated because of the 3-courses, but it was easily 20 minutes or more between the courses. The dessert was supposed to come with coffee but it took over 15 minutes for the coffee to come. The seats are cold, hard, metal chairs without much a back. The wait between courses would have been better if the chairs had been comfortable to sit in. Both my husband and I were anxious to leave because the seating was so uncomfortable. The salad was really good and presented well, neither my husband or I liked our main courses, and the dessert was wonderful. I wish the restaurant well because it is a good idea, but it isn’t for us.

Recently booked the Holiday dinner for 5. Truly the best meal I've had in ages and well worth the drive and money! Everything was top notch from the moment we arrived, friendly staff, beautiful and festive atmosphere. The 5 course meal started with an impressive charcuterie board to share, homemade rolls, followed by the most delicious squash bisque. The entree and sides were impressive and the dessert sublime. The atmosphere was delightful, background music soothing but not intrusive. Trellis and staff truly make you feel welcome. His devotion to presenting an impressive experience is an accomplished goal!

Always love dinner at Modern Homestead/Trellis Cafe. An upscale business with talented and creative owners. Trellis is a great cook. Always a joy, whether visiting to peruse plant offerings, eat a sandwich, have dinner or spend the night. Delicious chocolate chip cookies, too. Highly recommend.

This has been a bucket list dining experience for me for awhile, and I finally got to try it out. It’s a lovely, curated meal in a beautifully restored shop. Tables are carefully arranged so each one is almost like a private dining experience. The menu is different each time you go, they all look fabulous. We went for steak frites, and it was amazing.

The hospitality at Modern Homestead was outstanding. The atmosphere was comfortably cozy and everything was beautifully decorated - from the art on the walls to the matching milk glass side plates, fresh peonies, and salt and pepper shakers. The food was exceptional. The menu for the evening included cornbread with fresh rosemary and thyme in a cast iron skillet, a salad with butter lettuce, cherry tomatoes, roasted beets, and parmesan, with a dressing that had a hint of roasted onions; fried chicken with fresh rosemary, potato salad, and fresh green beans; and an Atlantic Beach pie with a scoop of the smoothest vanilla ice cream topped with flavorful fresh mint. Everything was delicious, but everyone agreed it was the best fried chicken we had ever had - bursting with flavor and juiciness. We also sampled the equally wonderful vegetarian option - fresh pesto orecchiette with asparagus and fresh sage. I also enjoyed a hibiscus iced tea, while others raved about the coffee. Kudos to Chef Trellis and krewe. Update: We went back the following weekend for another exceptional dinner with a gorgeous cheese plate, a garden fresh salad with an amazing balsamic vinaigrette, Cajun crab cakes loaded with flavor and not filler, and the most perfect version of strawberry shortcake. I’m going to be dreaming of those biscuits!

This was our first visit and we were impressed by the ambiance, service and especially the offerings. From the blue corn muffins to the rhubarb sorbet, each bite was a taste treat! We particularly enjoyed the shortbread that accompanied dessert- it was the perfect complement to the tartness of the rhubarb. We will be back for more!

We always love Modern Homestead cozy dinners but this dinner was particularly delicious: my husband had beef bourguignon and I had mushroom bourguignon and both were superb. This is a lovely and sophisticated place to eat and we appreciate that we can have such an experience without leaving Preston County. Thanks, Lucas and Trellis, for creating such a terrific spot for us to enjoy!

I was looking forward to dining at the Modern Homestead with friends for the March Cozy Dinner, and came away sorely disappointed. For four people, dining and tip included it was close to $200 and I expected at that price something much better. While the restaurant has a lot of character, the table we were seated at should have only held two people. Even after removing the flowers, candle, sugars, etc., our utensils, plates and glassware was cramped onto the table to the point that everyones place setting was touching each others. For the dinner, I felt like the price of $40 was over priced for the meal. The beverage options were water with dinner and coffee with dessert. You are able to BYOB. The salad dressing was good, but the pickled onions were missing and honestly, it was organic spring greens, english cucumber and cherry tomatoes that can be purchased at any supermarket. Nothing special. The chicken had a good flavor, but was over cooked and dry. The green beans were okay and the rice was decent. I was excited for the dessert and it was listed as a Lemon Meyer cake with whipped cream. It should have stated a Lemon Meyer pound cake and NO whipped cream was on the plate or offered. With our table paying close to $200 total for the meal, (tip included) we all felt disappointed and will not return. I wish it would have been different as I prefer local restaurants.

Very nice Valentines Day dinner. Aside from the excellent service, I was impressed with how all the food was different than ordinary in a good way. You won't find these kinds of dishes at the chain restaurants. I highly recommend Modern Homestead for special dinners in a classy but not stuffy atmosphere.

Our party of three had a great time at the cozy harvest dinner. The set menu was delicious, not the usual same old options. The portions were generous, two of our party took food home. The service was excellent, attentive without hovering. They had great music playing. Everyone did some shopping after the meal and we all enjoyed our experience very much.
