    Can’t wait for the new location to open. Always have a great meal. Only complaint is the noise level. If any large group is seated then their conversation seems to bounce off the walls. That said we will still be spending all of our special occasions at 247 Craven

    Food was excellent as usual. Noise level should go down when they move in October.

    Our third trip to New Bern and had been wanting to try this place. Glad we made reservations for a Saturday in August, as we didn’t realize how tiny it was. We were informed by our attentive and knowledgeable waiter that they will be relocating soon to the next block ( which will necessitate a name change!) - hopefully a larger space so more folks will be able to enjoy the delicious, creative cuisine, artfully presented. Eclectic list of wines by the glass for which I was grateful since the rest of our party was drinking craft beers. Can’t wait to try this on our winter visit in their new location!

    Food and staff are always great. They have a nice wine list and full bar . Their menu is different from the usual and always delicious.

    This is OUR favorite restaurant in New Bern. It's small (they'll be moving in the Fall to a larger location), the bar is very well-stocked and has an awesome bartender (Christina), and the food is outstanding. We've had traditional gazpacho, perfectly cooked pork chops with blueberry compote, crispy flatbread pizza with country ham and asparagus, whole black bass . . . the list goes on and on. The menus change frequently and there's always a taste surprise awaiting us.
