We were here on an off season time so I would highly recommend reservations. The menu is small which I love because I don't have to many items competing with each other to order. I decided to order a board as an appetizer with 2 meats, 2 cheeses, and a side. Huge happy dance with this one, the honey ricotta was amazing, deviled eggs huge smiles, burrata was perfect, salami and prosciutto beautiful. On this day they had two specials butternut squash ravioli and a sea bass. We chose the ravioli with added chicken, it had a good taste however did not compete with the other dishes (still did a happy dance with each bite). There is a kids menu, we had the fettuccine with chicken, good side for kids. They also have shrimp or just cheese fettuccine, pizza, and lasagna. Our main courses we had the eggplant parm, perfectly cooked with a side caprese salad. Mushroom and chicken fettuccine amazing flavors and a good portion. For desert we had the apple bread pudding, to die for, a cookie pie and chocolate mouse type dessert (I forgot their names), all very good. Highly recommend this place and as a family was listed #1 out of 5 places eaten here in Leavenworth.

We got seated at a table near the window, so we were able to get a good view of the lights outside. Our waitress was very nice and gave us the run down on the specials. We wish the bread and olive oil was complementary, but thats okay. We got a ceaser salad to share and then my husband got the rabbit ragu and I got the Bolognese con tagliatelle because I was sharing it with my daughter. Our waitress asked if we wanted pepper on our salad and we said yes, but she never came with it. We did get it on our pasta though! My dish was good, but wished I would have gotten my original dish I wanted, however waitress said it might have been too spicy for my kid. One funny thing that happened was another waiter accidentally brought another tables food to our table. He put a spaghetti in front of my daughter and when we said it was the wrong table, our daughter was so mad. To make up for it, the waiter had sent over some gelato for her! I thought that was a sweet gesture. Great italian food and lots of good drink options. We would definitely eat here again.

Dick and Jane, who are both artists, bought the home in 1978. The rest is history. Dick passed away in 2008, but Jane continues to add to their masterpiece. I stumbled across the home while driving through town one day. It was one of the highlights of my week long trip. I made a point of walking all around the house, taking photographs of everything I saw, with the goal of giving those who may not have the opportunity to visit a sense of what a magical place this is. Enjoy! Highly Recommended!!!

On a super busy Saturday when Leavenworth had an event going on I came to sample some wines here…read more You have to go down some steep stairs to get to the tasting room, so don't drink to much or getting out will be difficulet. They have some high tables with stools to sit on. Its a decent sized space but it fills up fast. They only had two people on staff which means there was always a wait. It made it hard for them to spend any time explaining the wines for tasting. A tasting is 20$ and you get to sample 4 wines. My favorites where the white merlot(not actually a white) and the hot mulled wine. The bottles are priced way to high for the average person to buy one.

So, after all this time I could've stopped here on the way back home?!?!? Ugh....figures! The hike up is fairly short, but the trail is loose and slippery, so be careful going up and down the trail. Also, as mentioned in another review, beware of rattle snakes, as this is their sagebrush home. We didn't see any, but we did see some quick little black lizards scurrying by.

However, the trail is steep and treacherous. Going up isn't too bad, but sandy soil and loose jagged rocks make the trip back down only for the reasonably surefooted. They are worth viewing even from a distance, because of their lifelike feel, in what was at one time, real wild-horse country.

Noisy construction and hassles caused by construction for new out of character houses. How much longer can Roslyn claim to be a historic town when they are allowing massive growth and planning for even more expansion? A previous review stated: "locals are not pleased about people from out of town" - while I wasn't there personally to witness such, it is possible since some locals want to leave Roslyn alone... and some people from out of town do not. :( Then there are the developers that are building and building and building.

Regardless, this is one of my favorite places on earth. The town sits right on the banks of the river at the base of the sheer face of Mt. Index. It is breathtaking. If I had the money, I would buy this town, buy everyone out and live there for the rest of my days. To me, it is incredible. I thought of buying and reviving the old Bush House. I think it was on the block for the low, low price of 700K. Unfortunately, it would take more than that to get the place in safe enough condition to open for business. There use to be a superb restaurant in the old place. Index is still unspoiled for the most part.
