    Sat outside, bit cold under infrared heaters. Portions great size, food interesting but some tries to hard. Skip prawns and oyster appetizers.

    I wanted to love it. The location and concept are fantastic, and eventually, when they are fully up and running, im sure they will iron out some of the kinks, but it was a high and low experience. The location and experience when on property was great - being able to roam around with my family was an awesome excuse to show up early and learn about the farm and have a drink from the brewery before. Dinner was where the issues were - prices seemed a little inflated with the overall flavor and finishing of food. Bread and Butter were great, Soup was nice, but entree's were hit and miss. The portions seemed to reflect the inflated price, but the flavors werent there. The salad had minimal dressing and lacked substance. The Halibut looked beautiful but was one-note. Short rib was similar - surprised on how lack of complexity it had. The carrots were cooked well, but didnt get washed enough as a few of them i bit into had dirt that was an audible "crunch" to it. Last but not least was the dessert - which sounded great, but the theme seemed to be lack of flavor - the cake was slighty dry and wasnt quite balanced, though the salted carmel sauce was stellar. Panna Cotta needed a bit more sugar as it was very subtle and just tasted like a texture rather than flavor. My highlight was the cocktail which was great... Overall, id go back in a few months in hopes things would get refined and dialed in specifically on food - as the staff were all great!

    I started with the cauliflower soup, which was a little over-salted but flavorful. To follow, I had the lobster toast - microscopic bits of lobster in a too-spicy sauce atop a piece of burnt brioche. Inedible. The restaurant is beautiful and the service is friendly, but I will not be returning.

    We absolutely love the ambiance here! The design and layout of the entire place is beautiful and spacious. I feel like they need a couple more fire pits outside so stay warm by. Its nice to arrive early and have a cocktail from the market around the fires. Grab some farm fresh items and freshly baked treats, sweet little market. The Haven restaurant upstairs is very nice and the service is top notch. The food is most certainly farm fresh and prepared wonderfully. We loved the prawns and hummus apps. I would say the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the meat both times I've been here. The short ribs were dry and a bit gamey because its grass fed, carrot finished beef. And the pork belly was tough and chewy, not sure why on that one. I prefer both to be bit more tender and juicy. The wine list here is also fairly eclectic, perhaps a few more known wines could be added. Other than that we enjoy this place very much and will be back to try more dinners!

    Spectacular experience!! We loved prawns and smoked chicken. Eager to try their salads. Also their bread and butter duet is so good it’s practically evil.

    I would have given 5 stars but the steak did not keep up with the rest of the meal. This will not stop me from going back. Everything was excellent, delicious and the service impeccable. Highly recommend
