In the middle of nowhere in the Vermont hamlet of Ferrisburgh you will find this hidden gem The second you enter this restaurant glance to the right and observe the immaculate and regimented kitchen. I liken it to a mini Alinea or Madison Park. Just browse the menu on their website to give you some idea of this creative master chef. We tried just about everything and nothing disappointed. The wine list is not large but loaded with great choices showing the extensive work given to its creation Leslie - our server - was exceptional and helped guide us to the right choices The maple dessert was heavenly as was the dining room with a conspicuous replica of the famed Van Gogh proudly staring or of you prefer “starring” down on the guests It is well worth the 30 minute drive south from Burlington and we are sure to return

Everything was fine except for the price on the steak. I really wanted it, but could not deal with the price that was quoted to me. Maybe if they offered a smaller portion?

This place is special. Interesting space, attentive and talented staff, tight - yet varied - menu. Generous portions, well prepared. It’s out of the way, but worth the trip - besides, it’s a beautiful drive down one of the loveliest stretches of Route 7. Can’t wait to make the pilgrimage again.
