We had brunch here a couple weeks ago with our grandson. We enjoyed the food and ambiance. The server was great.

Nice menu variety. Building is very well maintained and attractive. Though it is brick and wood, there is carpet to help absorb sound. They have a friendly staff.

The Sunday Brunch is the best! Special occasions a reservation well in advance or you wont get in!

I'm a first time diner my brother recently ate at your establishment for a school outing. He gave rave review on your Duck Entree and Crème Brûlée. So i made a reservation for Saturday night and im so happy I did. There was no wait upon arrival I was whisked away to my table. Drink of choice at the table was Raspberry Margaritas. I personally ordered the Shrimp Cesar Salad with truffle oil my partner had the Filet Mignon which was overcooked unfortunately. She wanted medium well not well done. My brother ordered the whitefish he enjoyed it so much he stoped talking. To us once his food arrived. The crème Brûlée is the best dessert you can taste the fresh vanilla bean. The ambiance reminds of an older wood cabin feel with high ceiling and exposed brick very homely.

Superb restaurant for special occasions. The staff, ambiance, and food all around was spectacular. There wasn't a qualm about anything from making the reservation until the evening ended. I called ahead and notified the staff of the special occasion and received a complementary tablecloth and candle on the table by the fireplace, as well as a scrumptious dessert. Would recommend this to anyone who wants to celebrate here with a delicious meal.

Love this place and enjoy getting to go when I come back to visit! Had a wonderful date night with my Mom tonight. Highly recommend the mushrooms and shrimp appetizers and coconut shrimp salad. Enjoyed the flourless Chocolate cake and peppermint tea for dessert. Our server Moira was great!

A nice restaurant located at an inconspicuous in town! I ordered a BBQ burger. The flavor was not so strong, so I added a little salt in the middle because of my heavy taste. For the dessert, I ordered the first on the menu called chocolate solution cake, and it was delicious! I really like the layers above the mousse which tasted thick and can melt in my mouth, and it was not too sweet. For the service, I did wait for some time to be seated though there were just a few groups of people inside during my visit. There seemed to be no servers at the front desk, which was a little embarrassing for me to ask for help. However, the waitress was very friendly and gentle, which made my lunch experience beautiful and relaxing. Anw, I love the poetic environment of this restaurant, especially the seat near the windows!

Have been there for quite a few times. Tried different stuff each time and I would like to say without hesitation that it offers the best deal of (casual) fine dining in C-U area, considering food, price, opening time and service. It is a huge restaurant with wooden decor, having a bar, regular table, booths, outside seating, and a green house for gatherings and parties. But due to its popularity, I would suggest you to make reservations. The restaurant serves mainly new American dishes, featuring a lunch menu, dinner menu and daily specials. Below are reviews of some dishes: 1. Lobster Mac & Cheese. Medium serving size. The lobster meat was pulled and blended with the noodles. There were also lots of mushrooms. Both the meat and mushrooms are very delicious. The sauce was not super thick and works well with their free cheese bread. 2. Salmon Wellington. A pretty cool dish! A huge piece salmon with crispy crust outside. According to my server the salmon was first grilled then fried with the crust. Surprisingly it still tasted tender and fresh. Also served with perfectly grilled asparagus and mashed potato. 3. Burrata Crostini. Had lots of veggie and cheese. The burrata was rich in flavor. I also liked the green sauce at the bottom of the bread which had a good comb of saltiness and sweetness. However the bread was somehow too chewy. 4. Coconut Shrimp. Kinda disappointed with this one. I thought it was something like grilled shrimp topped with warm coconut sauce but it turned out to be fried shrimp with cold coconut sauce on the side for dipping. The fried shrimps already had a strong flavor which, combined with the thick and sweet sauce, was contradictory. 5. Grilled protabella stack. This is a 2023 Vegan Challenge dish. Basically a stack of (top to bottom) a huge mushroom cap, onion, tomato, eggplant, onion, tomato, eggplant, topped with some broccoli and tomato sauce. It was very creative and delicious! The whole dish looked like a burger but tasted more flavor than a burger! Sauce was rich and went well with the veggie. Also it was quite filling. 6. Poblano Chicken. A standard dish. Medium size. The chicken was tender. The mashed potato was rich and creamy. It had some broccoli mushroom and green beans but I hope it could have more veggie. 7. Crème brûlée. Tried it during Champaign Restaurant Week. Not crazily sweet for me, which is great to me but if you like very sweet food it may be a bit bland. I like its inside very much. The outside was transparent and hard. It tasted somehow like glass lol. 8. Tomato bisque soup. Very good! Very thick and rich. There was some blue cheese inside which added more interesting flavor to it. 9. Flank steak salad (written by my friend), Steak was perfect with medium rare but serving size could be larger. Veggies were fresh and juicy. Acocado, lettuce and crispy chips combined very well. Though the dish did not have much protein, it definitely fills your stomach and was indeed a healthy meal. 10. New Zealand Lamb (written by my friend). The lamb tasted fresh and tender, so good that I finished it in a few bites. The Tzatziki sauce on the top added more flavor. It would be my most recommended dish if there could be more lamb in the dish. 11. Turkey Brie lunch combo. Lots of food with only $17. I got a huge sandwich, some sweet potato fries, choice of side salad, a spear of pickle and a cookie whose diameter was about 20cm! The turkey brie sandwich was interesting in that it had some onion and apple blend which created a smokey-sweet flavor, and surprisingly it went well with the turkey and arugula! The sweet potato fries were standard but the salad was fresh.
