It’s so beautiful in there from the views to the dining sections. Great chill spot. DJ played great music and was loud but not too loud that you couldn’t hear anyone speaking to you so that was great!

Barrel, cheese & wine was amazing! I can’t say enough about the service, food and atmosphere. I hosted a party for 12 and the team was so accommodating. They went above and beyond for us and made our party one we will remember for a long time. As far as food goes, I’d recommend everything on the menu. But the feta spread was amazing! For me, the one thing that stood out is that they didn’t have any hidden fees. There were no surprises or special charges bc of our party size and I think that’s so hard to find these days. I can’t wait to go back.
