The grounds are beautiful! We parked on the hotel side and walked through the property to the restaurant, absolutely stunning! The complimentary bread was delicious. We ordered the charcuterie board and crab cakes for 3 of us and it was perfect. They brought out a dessert for my girlfriend’s birthday, she loved it. Staff was attentive and helpful. We will be back
