This is a wonderful gem of a restaurant in Orange, VA. The service was top notch, the food was excellent, and the ambience perfect for a night out. Suitable for families , friends, and couples. Our server, Shawn, was attentive and knowledgable, and very friendly throughout the evening. There was also some lovely live guitar music that made the evening that much nicer.
