I was so proud to introduce three guests, who had never dined here before. It was a true dining experience and not just going out to dinner. From Mary's vast and impressive wine collection, we had a fabulous bottle of Italian sparkling wine. Dinner was impressively served, beautifully presented and most importantly DELICIOUS! The dining room chairs are comfortable and inviting. We were able to sit back, relax, sip on that amazing bottle of wine, engage in wonderful conversation, while being attentively served and never rushed. My group dictated the experience's timing. We were there for 3.5 hours and NEVER felt rushed. What an awesome experience!

We also loved the unique stoneware and glassware! All staff we interacted with were warm, friendly, and personable. We’ll be back!
