Our menu and theme of the restaurant is inspired by taking classics and adding a modern flare. We renovated a classic American building with contemporary design inside. The menu is taken from classic recipes, sourced locally and given a twist. The items will be familiar yet distinct. You will find presentation to be clean and simple. Our beverage program is an experience in itself. Our historic bar will transport you back in time, and our bartenders will guide you on a journey of crafted cocktails, wines and draft beer. We consider ourselves "fine casual", a warm and welcoming atmosphere paired with fine dining and excellent service.

We’re still new to the area and went to Marygold’s for the first time 12/09 for an early dinner. Outstanding from start to finish. The cocktails were out of this world and the Chef and culinary team’s food was the BEST we’ve had in the area. We can’t wait to return.

Two couples for dinner. Service was prompt, all our dinners were good to excellent and the atmosphere is always comfortable. It was fairly busy but there was a nice holiday vibe, pleasant lighting and music. Always reliable for a happy night out.
