What a great ol'fashion supper club! Took 2 years to get here and we loved it. Such a quant place…read more Service was great, granted there were only maybe 5 tables sat on a Thursday night off season, but extremely friendly. Rolling black leather chairs, white linen napkins and even the old silver butter melters with the candle I remember as a kid. Just a reminder, they only accept reservations so make sure you call ahead. I heard rumor that they only seat about 25-30 tables a night, so get in early! As for the prices, I'd say extremely reasonable for what you get. They had a simple but excellent salad bar, fresh dinner rolls and all the old side salads you would think comes with a supper club salad bar. No relish try needed, it's all up there along with cheddar cheese spread and liver pate. There were three of us and we all ordered the same thing. 5oz. Filet with shrimp. Dinner included soup as well. All for $36, I'd say that's kinda a steal! Steak was cooked perfect and everything tasted good. I wish I got there a little earlier to enjoy the bar. Definitely a 60's-70's era bar, but it was very clean and nostalgic. The bartender made probably the best old fashion I've had in a very long time. We rounded out dinner with a grasshopper after dinner ice cream cocktail. Perfect size for the three of us to share! This review is from fall of 2024 and the restaurant is currently up for sale. Sounds like they may keep it open if and when they sell it and I hope they do keep it open. I really wish there were more supper clubs like this one!

Started with shared pasta salad and cheddar spread best eaten with bread sticks. Warm rye bread was an add on. We ordered the appetizer special - cheese sticks deep fried with marinara sauce. Would pass on it next time. Four adults and two children in the party. Adults had filet mignon, baby back ribs and two had fish fry. The steak was prepared perfectly and came with a baked potato. Ribs were good but they were not typical baby back as expected and came with a potato pancake with apple sauce. Fish fry was generous and served with cole slaw and baked potato. I spilt a wedge salad and it was delicious. Romaine lettuce split and loaded with blue cheese, tomato's, bacon and a blue cheese dressing. Kids had grilled cheese sandwich with fries, and the other had pasta with red sauce. Both meals were clean plate club. Our server was excellent. The meal was timed perfectly and we were kept informed as the night went on. Would definitely return. Recommend without any reservations. Ambience is special, well worth going early to check things out.

The mushrooms were crispy and delicious, but the pressure fried chicken was seriously amazing! Perfectly seasoned, and every time your fork touched the meat juices oozed out. Yum!!! The only critique we had was on the pizza; while the crust, cheese and toppings were good, the pizza sauce was very bland. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

Another bartender came out from the back, looked at me, and then immediately walked over to the people ponying up on the other side. I was done at that point.
