I ordered a beet salad which I order at many restaurants. I love beets. The beets that they put in there were pickled and tasted terrible. Really ruined a beautiful salad otherwise. And the piece of salmon that I had put on top was not fresh. So had more of a fishy smell. The menu didn't even describe the salad as having pickled beets. The oysters were superb though. As was the chicken sausage flatbread. The decor is pretty bland and not appealing at all. The lighting is terrible.
Had the ricotta ravioli and they were delicious. On their own they weren’t very flavorful, but the sauce was excellent (mildly salty at times but this is usual when eating out at American restaurants overall I fear). The zucchini on the bottom were delicious and went well with the rest of the dish. I’m used to getting only a few pieces of ravioli that are not that great, even at well rated restaurants, so I was happily surprised by these. I feel like getting ravioli is a test of how good the restaurant is - so this one will be worth coming back to for a second time. Service was excellent and the inside is spacious enough that it feels like a good meeting spot. Not too loud, good lighting for an evening meal.
We started off for the great corn chowder and lobster kind of soup. The chicken and salmon entrees were good but not to the level of the soup. Which was a bit disappointing. Service was good and a quiet atmosphere.
Such a nice experience. Food was incredible. We got the Truffle Fries, Bourbon Tips and Ravioli. All are winners. Service was great, Deanna was super personable and friendly. We both agreed we hadn't had food this good since Italy (perhaps we don't go out enough). We both agreed the Bourbon Tips were 10/10. As you can see we ate literally everything.
Short rib sandwich and popper peppers were quite delicious.
Regular fries were super salty. Trufle fries were better but you do not taste trufle much.

Food is fantastic here and portions are outstanding. They had a decently sized outdoor dining area. We ordered the chicken sandwich, a burger, and the roasted carrots. Also ordered a mixed drink which was really tasty as well. Service was exceptionally slow though and the only thing bringing down the rating. Would def return!
Great food, great service, attractive interior. We had burrata beet salad, wild boar tagliatelle, and apple cinnamon bread pudding. It did NOT disappoint. Delicious. Great value.
