    I’m we were a group of four for a Saturday night dinner. Their nightly specials all sounded good and made it hard to choose what to get. The daily selection of oysters was an excellent option and we enjoyed about a dozen. Service, food, and timing were all outstanding. Chives is always a good option when in the area.

    Chives never disappoints! We began at the bar with some craft cocktails - the Manhattan (delish!), hubby ordered the Skipper and had great conversation with other customers. Then moved to our table and started with the escargot - I really like the presentation of small puff pastry over each individual piece. I ordered the pan fried lake trout special - so good. Our waiter Carlton was the best! Chives always delivers a great experience from the bar, the fabulous food and spot on wait staff.

    Had a 6 pm reservation on a Friday in mid-March. Were seated immediately. Waiter was very congenial, shared info about two fish specials that weren’t on the menu. I ordered the trout, and husband had beer batter fried grouper with traditional Wisconsin fish fry sides of cole slaw and fried. Both meals were excellent, and we finished our dinner with dessert, sharing an order of créme brûlée that was fantastic. We try to go to Chives every time we travel to Door County, usually once a year.

    Chives has s French Bistro motif and an intimate ambiance. It s the only restaurant in the area with certain menu items which we like snd they are always prepared expertly, for example duck breast in cherry sauce, NOT duck confit! Our waiter was an expert in wines, having been a wine dealer with experience in the Medoc and Saint Emilion regions. All-in-all a great dining experience!

    Chives never fails. They have a consistent menu with great variety. In addition, Chives offers two to three "specials" that keep it interesting. Staff is one of the best in Door County with a high level of service and friendliness.

    We came here for New Years Eve, also our 1 year wedding anniversary. Staff was welcoming, our waiter was excellent. We ordered drinks, old fashioneds, which were made really wonderful, and oysters. We each got an order of 12 oysters plus the chives frites. Never had a order of fries taste so good. Also got the peanut butter dessert. YUM. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

    Chives is the perfect place in Door County to celebrate a momentous occasion or simply have a special, elegant dinner out. We love that the restaurant is open Mondays (in season) when most other places are closed. The food is delightful and delicious. (We had the Chicken Marsala, Calamari with Pappardelle noodles and Whitefish with Broccoli and Beans, as well as appetizers of oysters and a lovely cheese plate.) The service is excellent. The craft cocktails are original and tasty, the atmosphere is upscale but casual. We always have a perfect evening when we go to Chives!

    This restaurant did not honor our reservation. I asked if we could have a quiet corner table and they replied they had a nice corner table reserved for us. When we arrived, they did not, and seated us next to a noisy table of 6.
