Our menu and theme of the restaurant is inspired by taking classics and adding a modern flare. We renovated a classic American building with contemporary design inside. The menu is taken from classic recipes, sourced locally and given a twist. The items will be familiar yet distinct. You will find presentation to be clean and simple. Our beverage program is an experience in itself. Our historic bar will transport you back in time, and our bartenders will guide you on a journey of crafted cocktails, wines and draft beer. We consider ourselves "fine casual", a warm and welcoming atmosphere paired with fine dining and excellent service.

As always, such a solid choice. Always excellent homemade soups and usually special creative salad like the phenomenal cantaloupe salad they had this weekend. What a perfect balance of tastes. Mel who works the whole bar area and creates many of their specialty drinks is a gem

We went out to dinner for my wife’s birthday. The waiter was very friendly, not phoney, very attentive without being annoying. Food was great. We ordered 3 apps and all outstanding. We all loved our meals. Only downside was they didn’t have the beer I was craving :)
