    Food was amazing, love the atmosphere. I’ve been here once before with my parents and sister, and we dined for about two hours if not longer and the service was absolutely wonderful. This time, the service was good and the host and our server were very nice. The issue is, we felt rushed. My cousin and I love to just sit and dine and enjoy the company and the meal. But the food came out really quick as soon as we ordered, and gave us the sense that they wanted us out of there as soon as possible. The feel of being rushed was disappointing, to say the least.

    Food was alright. Service was terrible. Had to wait so long to put in our order. The staff was paying more attention to the large party that was seated after us. Felt like we were ignored. It’s unfortunate because I do enjoy coming here to eat.

    There’s no place to be in Wednesday’s except at the Peasant Cookery. I tired the calamari for the first time and it was delicious. Tried 2 cheeses chef selection. And of course the oysters. It’s the kind of place right now, in this mixed up crazy world, that makes you feel at home.

    I LOVE this restaurant! I ate here last time in town and had these amazing ribs and a butternut squash soup which was likely one of the best meals I’ve had. This time, I had the beef carpaccio and it was amazing!! They change their menu regularly so it’s always a pleasant surprise when I come back. Extra bonus is that their Old Fashioned is perfect!

    Tip would have been more if the service was better. Waited a while when requested a napkin that was needed immediately. Server forgot that we had asked for sauce so we had to ask again. Took a while to get our drink order as well.
