    Please instruct your servers on how to serve the 4 course meal for 2. We received course 2, the salad,first. Then the 1 st course arrived, our appetizers. By the time we finished our salad the main course arrived. Thus, we hadn’t even sampled our appetizer. The is delicious but it was a missed opportunity to enjoy all of it in sequence.

    We were here in July just for cocktails. We saw some of the plates being served and decided if we came back it needed to include dinner. We dined with our kids 10, 5 and 3 and we loved everything about it. The food and service were great, and as someone with celiac disease I really appreciated the server's knowledge of the food. We would definitely come back, and would recommend both the dining room and the bar.

    Filet mignon was perfect. The roasted red potatoes were dry and hard to chew, half of them were brown skinned potatoes. The asparagus had woody ends that should have been removed before cooking. The crem brûlée was full if Oreos which made it dry and some Oreos were burnt on top where they stuck out above the caramelized sugar. They substituted a baked potato for the dry red potatoes and it was good. The goat cheese appetizer was very good. The salads and bread were great! Server did a very good job.

    First time here, pleasantly surprised. Ribeye stew paired with the corn bread was very good and tasty. Good liquor selection. Oreo crème brûlée for dessert, delicious! Jennifer, our server, was very efficient, professional, and funny. Will come again next time we are in Independence.
