    First time eating there. Our server was very knowledgeable. We liked the iPad menu, it allows a better view of what you are ordering. Good sized portions and the food was excellent.

    Food was great. We ordered a drink and waited to put food order in wanting to order wine with meal. Was told drinks would be right out. Placed meal order. Initial cocktail and meal came out at same time. Took over 20 mins for first drink. Server never came back after delivering meal.

    My family and I had a lovely dinner at OBC Kitchen and I doubt I can do it justice with just a few words. In short, the food was amazing, the atmosphere warm and inviting, and the service impeccable. I especially would like to give a shout out to our server, Travis H. for his friendly, attentive service to our party of six on a very busy Saturday night.
