Food and service was excellent. We chose to eat outside because instead is in serious need of refurbish, total remodeling. It smells musty , is dark and dank,certainly no place that we would enter to eat.

Beautiful property, but they ran out of food early on at the Easter Brunch. When you’ve paid over $200 for your family to eat, you expect there to be enough food. By noon when we arrived, there was barely anything left and my husband waited for 45 minutes to get a tiny piece of meat once it was finally ready. Unfortunately, I do not plan on going back next year, as much as I wanted this to become our Easter tradition.
