I was very disappointed with the crispy pork belly. The previous version was delicious. This version was like a piece of pulled pork on a bed of whole kernel corn topped with coleslaw. I won’t order it again!

Great experience, 3 appetizers,- duck wings, foccia bread and cauliflower. All 3 were very tasty. Duck wings especially. Our entries were lamb shank, wagu burger, 2 dry aged rib eyes, and the special was pork porterhouse. We all agreed in order of the best was lamb shank(fell off the bone) then the rib eyes, the others were very good too but these were just better! I personally liked my steak though😉

Our server was fantastic! The meatball was okay but the pomodoro sauce was horrible. No seasoning and why are they putting whole mini veg in this? Ugh. Still like this restaurant but won't be ordering that again.

Definitely one of my favorite neighborhood restaurants now, and a place I love to take visitors and family when they come in to town. Chef is a culinary god, (the new cauliflower app- YUM!) Patrick is beyond exceptional in his charm and professionalism as a host. We almost always sit in Shayna’s section because we love her as well. She knows her wines, recommends good food pairings, and is at the table whenever we need her, while still providing the luxury of eating slowly and privacy when we feel like it. So few young people provide good service anymore and these two provide exceptional service and friendliness. I feel like signing over half my mortgage to her lol, or buying her a small country. Kat

The service was great- very nice people and friendly atmosphere. It was a little warm inside as it was a hot evening but otherwise it was perfect. Duck legs for appetizer- as recommended by many reviewers- was yummy. Cocktails were good and dinner was really good - complete with dessert of oatmeal crumble that was like homemade. We have been meaning to check this place out and we’re happy we finally made it here. We will be back!

We celebrated my moms 84th birthday and had a party of 8. The food was amazing as always. We also ordered the daily “mocktail” which was refreshing and different. We loved it. The halibut was so good! Everyone enjoyed the Brussel sprouts, even those who claimed not to like Brussel sprouts before dinner. The burgers were delicious, the ribeye was a hit. The pasta dish was so yummy and full of all the seasons vegi’s. We loved the flavor of the pistachio pesto sauce.

Fantastic service, real teamwork of 5-6 people taking care of all the tables and helping each other out. The food was AMAZING!!! Brussel Sprouts with pork belly, basket of herb fries, daily special was a pork shank that literally had the meat melting off of the bone and the Chicken Schnitzel. Lemon crème brûlée and the oatmeal cookie crumble over home made apple strudel ice cream. Had a scoop of the Nutella ice cream as well. Everything was absolutely fantastic and with two glass of wine around $150 a great value. We will definitely be back, thank you guys for a wonderful anniversary dinner.

Probably the worst value i have seen considering the total absence of ambiance. The only item on the menu within reason was the giant meatball at $28.50 - an item my CC serves for half the price. The service was quite good. They tried to charge us $6 for medium quality bread. They backed out the charge after my complaint that i wasn't told Most of the clientele looked like refuges from the dust bowl.

This is a great neighborhood restaurant. Service is always excellent. For dinner we had the chicken schnitzel which was so crispy and delicious. My husband had the Wagyu burger. It was juicy and delicious. It came with very tasty French fries. I ordered the nightly special, pork osso buco. It was so tender and delicious. This is one of our favorite restaurants!
