Loved this place! The staff , the outdoor seating , the farm in the back. Food was delicious! I think they just need to add some more variety to the menu. But everything was so good!

It's small and fills up fast! You have to know when to get there if you want a table, which is a good thing. Scratch cooking. Ingredients locally driven. Always good. Food is priced appropriately.

Jessica Plank

Everything's great. Lots of food options and drinks are awesome, too! Quinoa salad and blueberry basil mojito were delish!

The crab cakes are AMAZING!!!! Fresh green salad & veggies on the side. Peach/blueberry cobbler & fresh whipped cream was devine!!! Love this little restaurant ! Check out their little store in back.

I had a great turkey wrap with homemade potato salad and what I thought was coleslaw but turned out to be amazing "Waldorf" salad !!

Seafood pasta was perfectly done. Scallops sweet and tender perfection!

Beef Tenderloin is delish! The beef is small but worth it! Just saves more room for soup and dessert !
