    Food was good. Went for Thanksgiving a party of 11. Everyone was satisfied no complaints. No kid menu but the chef made grill cheeses for the kids. Over it was a pleasant experience.

    Outstanding service. We appreciated the description of all the courses, the ingredients and those not to be overlooked. to be missed. First off, I noticed that the server noted in writing my "deadly" allergy to oysters. The Thanksgiving special tastings was inspired so we now look forward to a "school night" dinner. Oh ! an easy to converse rooms, but maybe someone could fine-tune the play list..... Maybe a task with so many generations, from infants to elders, in the room. DMM

    First time at this historic restaurant, which I had never visited before for a very important occasion. The staff was impeccable in greeting and taking care of us throughout the evening. They went above and beyond to acknowledge the important occasion and provide an exceptional seating position right by the fireplace. The main courses were exceptional. My partner had the rabbit, which was absolutely scrumptous, albeit a little salty for her liking. Only if it had been served with a starch to cut that saltiness, then it would have been perfect. I had the rock fish special, which was hearty but also light. It was exactly what I was looking for after a Saturday of Friendsgìving. The creme brulee for dessert was really good, although the custard was slightly unset. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and meal. We will be back.
