    It was our 37th Wedding Anniversary and when we were seated, along came 2 glasses of bubbly and a congratulatory greeting from our Server. We had a sensational 4 course meal and at the end of the meal we were again surprised by a gorgeous, complimentary dessert “warm donuts with ice cream and chocolate script “Happy Anniversary”! What an incredible restaurant and Staff. We have a reservation pre- New Years Eve celebration, with our daughter and partner. It’s her Birthday dinner and it’s a surprise right now. Wonderful experience, thank you “Earth”!

    From RJ’s greeting to Julia and others’ splendid service…welcoming ambiance, great food. We had the pork pave, their great skinny fries, their delicious toasted almond drink, and oh by the way some super homemade ice cream (simple delicious vanilla for me). Don’t go too often!—we want to be able to get in from our home an hour away. 🙂
