We enjoyed the evening very much. Jody was awesome and we appreciate all her input of the menu! She recommended the Beet salad and it was over the top as well as the Short Ribs. Dessert (Lemon) was so good too! We would love to see a Filet added to the menu. Thank you for a great new experience dining with you. We will definitely be back. Todd and Lisa

Always a great meal, we love the cheeseboard with drinks to start. I had the chicken, it was beautifully prepared with a crispy skin and tender meat. My husband had the halibut, he very much enjoyed it. Just a great meal, in a warm atmosphere.
