    Great place for foodies, as the owners and head chef are true gastrophiles. The food is eclectic and delicious. Try the small plates and a great bottle of wine in a casual, comfortable atmosphere.

    Great food & drinks! Locally sourced, quality ingredients. Can't miss items: Cherry Festival Salad, Chicken Lettuce Wraps, any duck dish, Mushroom & Brie soup. Miss their Wooden Spork food truck!

    Soups are great - everything is fresh and yummy! Dine in or take out. Sooo glad this place is in our area - we have needed a place like this for years. Reminds me of the French Laundry in Fenton.

    Some phenomenal food -- Thai curry was a standout - but other stuff came out lukewarm. Kinda uneven.

    Slow service: we waited over 40 minutes for our food. My latkes were slightly burnt but everyone else liked their food. Was disappointed because the reviews were so good. Try again? Not so sure.
