For our main courses, my husband chose the loaded burger with onion rings, and he declared it one of the best burgers he’s ever had! I opted for the baked cod served with parmesan risotto and a medley of zucchini, squash, and carrots. The cod was simply amazing—perfectly baked, flaky, and moist, with a flavorful glaze on top. I relished every bite! The risotto and vegetables were also seasoned to perfection. We would definitely love to dine here again!

Although the entrance can be a bit difficult to spot and could benefit from better signage, as well as some repairs to the potholes at the entrance, I have nothing but positive things to say about this place. The food is exceptional, and there’s a fantastic menu to choose from. The cocktail selection is equally impressive, and the bartenders are skilled at mixing drinks. Last night, I enjoyed a delicious corned beef and cabbage dinner, which was a special for March. I usually opt for their short ribs or beet ravioli, both of which are excellent, but the harvest salad is also a delightful choice. Our waiter was outstanding, and the atmosphere was charming and cozy. They even have a lovely outdoor seating area with a nice view. I’ve been coming here for years and often bring friends along, and we always have a wonderful experience. I’m definitely looking forward to returning soon. As for vegetarian options, I absolutely adore the goat cheese and beet ravioli, and I'm not even a vegetarian!

While the wings could have used a bit more salt, the real highlight of the pasta was not the shrimp, steak, or even the pasta itself—it was the sun-dried tomatoes! They added an incredible depth of flavor to the dish, so much so that I asked the waiter where they came from, and it turns out they are from Turkey. The waiter seemed a bit surprised that anyone would ask, but overall, it was a fantastic meal! I would definitely come back again.

Burgers, sandwiches and other entrees are all very juicy, yet crunchy and full of flavor. Definitely has a gourmet feel. Fries and onion rings are hand cut/battered. Prices are very reasonable. Apple crisp with ice cream was AMAZING 5/5.I definitely recommend.
