Ginger beer was flat and in second drink bourbon was overwhelmed by specialty syrup. Brewster beer on tap was a hit and we all switched to that before the evening was over. Appetizers ordered: tuna nachos 5 on the plate $18 Crispy Cauliflower $14 or $18? . Flavors were good but size was small for the price. Entrees ordered were short rib shepards pie and that was 5 star. Well worth the price $38 . Very underwhelmed by the fall risotto $34 Squash risotto was underseasoned with roasted chippolini served cold on the warm risotto brussel sprouts undercooked and mushrooms. Presentation was lovely but the combo was completely unsatisfactory. Bill for 4 adult diners was $268.83 before tax. I’ll wait until the patio opens next summer to try again…
