Went with a friend for the second time since they opened. First time wasn’t the best but this time it was excellent! The Burgers are great! I love that the theme is “grass fed” so I have a better idea of what I am eating. Will go back!

After reading the reviews and menu online, out party of 14 (4 children and 10 adults) called for a reservation for Wednesday evening. The call was made during the time the restaurant was open 11:30 AM but a recording came on with a prompt to leave a message for call back. After waiting an hour, I went to the site and sent an email with my party request. I did not receive a response. I called around 4:00 PM and only got a recording. I left another voice message. My daughter-in-law began to continuously call and after several attempts, she got a live answer. We were able to get a reservation for 7:00 PM.

The atmosphere and seating allow for conversation and provides enough room between tables to afford privacy. Every item ordered was excellent in taste, appeal and portion. The service was exceptional as well. We all agreed this will be a go to place on our next visit to the area.

I would have given it five stars except for the frustration over trying to make a reservation. When I brought it up to the hostess she was somewhat dismissive about the incident. Our server on the other hand said she would inform the owner and was apologetic.

Hopefully this was an off night as I have read other good reviews. Was with a large party and everyone got their soup and salad but me. By the time I actually got my soup, everyone was eating their entrée. The soup was very good though. My main meal was just ok - I did have leftovers the next day and it was tasty, so I hope to give them another chance and maybe it will be better. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit there, but perhaps we will try it again.

After reading the good reviews on here, we decided to give it a try. It was around 8 on a weekday night. Place was pretty full, with quite a few empty but "reserved" tables. We were the only ones waiting had to wait 30 minutes. Our waitress wasn't the friendliest, not checking back in with us very often. Food was pretty good though. The handful of "reserved" tables were never filled by the time we left. Bar tender seemed to be the friendliest guy in the place. Was expecting a little more from this cute little good joint...

Not from this area, I found myself peeling through reviews for a decent place to eat with the family. The food was excellent. Of four dishes (chicken carbonara, blue gill, eggplant with pasta and a hamburger) no one was disappointed. The portions were large and the presentation was great. The service was excellent, and on this particular night, the restaurant was quiet enough to enjoy conversations. If I had to generate one criticism it would be that, as much as they’ve tried, the atmosphere is a little sterile.
