    The service was outstanding. The environment was quiet. The food was excellent. We ordered the crab cakes as an appetizer and it was very good. We had the scallops and tuna for dinner and both equally delicious. We will be going back soon!

    My friend and I had the three branches dinner . It was so delicious! Preceded by a glass of champagne. The host told us the story of the restaurant and the property. The server was excellent. We were stuffed so had no room for dessert. The chef was kind enough to wrap it to go. Worth the trip from Ohiopyle!
