    The food was good , small parties for brunch. Not sure but in the middle of brunch we had little flying insects around our table. No other table seemed to have the same problem. We both had showered so it was us.

    Thank you for dining with us and for sharing your feedback. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the presence of what was likely fruit flies (sometimes the wine barrels attract them) during your meal. Your comfort is our priority, and we regret that this issue affected your experience.

    We were promptly seated, the hostess was very kind and made sure we were seated in a booth that we requested. Our server took quite a while to see us, but a bus boy did come quickly with waters. We ended up ordering specialty drinks, which also took a while to come, but were very yummy. We ordered appetizers, came within an appropriate time. We each ordered an entree, and were ready to order another drink but our server took the menu and never returned to ask if we wanted another drink. The chicken was SO good, juicy and cooked perfectly. Unfortunately, the filet was not. The filet was ordered medium but came out cooked completely through, not a touch of pink was present. Our server didn’t come to check how our food was, so we couldn’t rectify the situation. To try to fill up, as we didn’t eat the filet, just the veggies and mashed potatoes, we did order a dessert. Unfortunately, the whiskey Bundt was INCREDIBLY dry… to the point of needing more water to finish it once the ice cream was already gone. Overall we are very disappointed as we do frequent this establishment when we can get out, which is not often, so this evening felt like a waste of both time and money.

    Our food took longer than expected, other parties that arrived after us received their food before we did.

    I chose to sit outside because I know it can get noisy inside. They have heaters and blankets available for when it’s cold.

    Food and wine were good. Service was slow in the beginning but it improved over time. I recommend getting the wine membership to save money on wine and entires on Tuesday.

    Excellent food and perfect portions size. We enjoyed the lamb shank and filet mignon. Not overly stuffed so we shared the mini Bundt whiskey cake. All so good!
