What an absolutely amazing place. This experience will bring us back again for sure. Elena and Matt were so great and had great customer service. They went our of their way to make us feel like we were thr only ones there. We had such a great time. Matt was beyond knowledgeable about the menu and flavors were so good. We had the charcuterie board which was fun trying the different flavors and making our own was fun too. My husband had the Elk Chop and he said it was the best he has ever had. My lobster was seasoned perfectly. All the portions were great. Not too heavy and left you with room for dessert. The dessert was also very good and the flavors were great. We will be back again!
