We dined here New Year’s Day for dinner. It’s beautiful and comfortable. We ordered the meatball appetizer, which was delicious but we felt it was served a tad on the cool side. The entrée of salmon was perhaps a tad overcooked but the crusted duck was perfection. The caramel cider cheesecake dessert is very rich. We had nightcaps at the bar and enjoyed the seasonal dark Manhattan made with a dark stout beer reduction, very warming on a cold winter evening. Friendly and prompt service from the staff.

This place has become our favorite place for celebrating anything. Food is delicious and service is always great. Brewery beer on point. My husband loves the salad selection and I think the calamari is the best. Parking is also convenient since it's under the restaurant.
