Our server, I forget her name, was the epitome of hospitality and service. She anticipated our needs (refills, to go containers etc) - chatted about the history or the restaurant and town - providing suggestions not just for dinner but attractions on our way to our destination. She was just so very cool. The food was great - I opted for Greek Spaghetti. Different than I've had before but enjoyed it all the same. It was like the flavor was liquid or broth form, pooled at the bottom of the dish. Another version I had was dry, like Pesto. Anyway - when I figured out all the goodness was at the bottom of the plate - it was all over from there. Mixed it up a little. Toss in a little crushed red peppers for taste. Then inhaled it all until it was all gone. The al dente noodles. Charred chicken. All just right. The service for me made it an excellent experience. Food was good and I enjoyed it enough that if I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely stop in - but not before trying other places first. But if I lived in the area, I'd be a regular.

The ambiance was relaxing and quite com and the staff was awesome. We liked it so much we ate there several times during the same trip. Fully stocked bar and a fairly wide variety of craft beers too. Reasonably priced in today's environment, which is rare. Will visit them again next trip that way. Plenty of parking in the around the quaint town area of stores and restaurants. I gave it four stars and can't figure out why I didn't give it 5. Probably just grading a little more reserved these days. But for my wife and I it truly was a wonderful venue that offered enough selections for 2 people who eat the polar opposite meals. Nice job folks.

It's busy, it's buzzing, and yes... you're absolutely questioning your life choices while waiting. But then those SINFULLY good yeast rolls show up and suddenly all is forgiven. I ordered the 6 oz filet, cooked medium rare, and it was chef's kiss--tender, juicy, and cooked exactly right. Paired with grilled shrimp, which were seasoned well and perfectly cooked, it hit that surf-and-turf sweet spot. The sweet potato was fluffy and comforting (brown sugar and butter doing the Lord's work), and the salad was fresh, crisp, and a surprisingly solid opener. Bottom line: Yes, the wait is long. Yes, it's loud and chaotic. But the food is consistently good, the portions deliver, and once that food hits the table, you remember why people are willing to wait it out. Would I do it again? Absolutely--just with patience, low expectations for quiet conversation, and a serious appetite.

The service was fast - took only about 30 minutes on a Saturday night. When we arrived we waited in order check in for about 10 minutes before going inside ourselves to just grab the order: whatever. Not a make or break bc we were sure they were busy. When we got back and unpacked our order it was clear the steaks were completely charred. (Ordered medium rare). I could barely cut my ribeye (doubtful it was a ribeye- the texture alone was completely off). The mashed potato's were clearly some type of powdered mess, but at least they were tolerable. $26 for this. Wow. My husbands baked potato wasn't even thoroughly cooked. His steak (sirloin) was also charred and no seasoning at all. Would not recommend.
