   The restaurant was very nice. It took way too long to get out food.

   Another fantastic Thanksgiving at FARM - we’ve been six times for Thanksgiving now and it’s always been wonderful. Great vibe, excellent wine and awesome food - especially the turkey terrine, mashed potatoes, dressing and sweet potatoes. The presentation was better this year than last with turkey and sides served in their own dishes - so much better. Only slight criticism is the soup came before we’d finished the oysters and sparkling wine - usually timed better. But a small quibble in the grand scheme of things. See you next year.

   Beautiful space and warm ambiance in a lovely resort setting. However, we felt the quality of the food and service has declined from prior visits. The Ceasar salad was good. The cacio pepe gnocchi was excellent. The pork chop was burnt and the root vegetables were mush and indistinguishable. The NY strip steak was good but the accompaniments were bland. The duck was good. The arrabiata pasta was good, though a bit small for a main. The waiter first inquired about our meals after we’d already finished our mains, so sending back the burnt pork chop was not an option. Though they did comp dessert.

   Very nice restaurant. We sat in the enclosed patio while it was raining and the temperature was perfect. Food and service were both great on a slow evening.

   Great for a birthday! The grounds are gorgeous. Love how they do brunch with order 4 menu items to share with the table. Beignets are out of this world! Order them! Yummy cocktails and mocktails.

   This was a very frustrating dining experience. Living locally, we (used to) love going for happy hours or bringing F/F when visiting but I'm not sure this is the best go-to for either after our most recent experience. Made a dinner reservation for 7:45pm on a Sat. night for inside. Upon arrival we were told it would be a 15 - 20 min wait unless we wanted to sit outside (we didn't; it was freezing) and so we went to the bar. There is one bartender that is always fabulous and one (seemingly the more senior) that has been indifferent the last 4/5 visits. We ordered drinks & the hostess that originally told us our table wasn't ready came back 20 minutes later stating we "needed" to sit outside or wait another 30 - 45 minutes despite noting upon arrival that there was a table inside paying the bill. We informed her we had 1) made a reservation for inside 2) had already been waiting well past our reservation time & 3) didn't "need" or accept sitting outside in the cold. Finally got sat. Ordered an expensive bottle of wine to be told 15 - 20 minutes later they were out of it without any alternative recommendation at a similiar price point. Ordered 3 apps (2 were nothing special; 1 was better) 3 pastas (same as apps but portions for a toddler) and 2 entrees (the duck and the Florentine). The Florentine was $270 and was literally the worst cooked steak any of us had ever had - overcooked with absolutely ZERO flavor. If you have to ask for salt for a $270 steak the dish is not good. We love nice food, wine and service but this was just a fail. The only reason for not giving this a 1 or zero is the server herself was very nice and that the manager understood the steak was an embarrassment and didn't make a fuss about removing from the bill. Given that the question at the end was if we wanted to charge to the room; perhaps the assumption is tourists come in/out once but as locals (that own a hospitality co) that love to host F/F regularly it's hard to imagine going back.

    Food, service, staff, host, ambiance - all excellent. Thank you for providing a wonderful way to recognize the Remembrance anniversary of my wife's passing six years ago.
