Great Italian food with local ambience and local flair. One of our favorite places to dine. But, charging a plate fee for sharing an entree because our doctors want us to lose weight for health reasons is a cheap shot at the customer. I actually spilt the entree. But we still spent $80. If you’re going to charge a plate fee then you should split it in the kitchen. It adds an insult on the check that just discourages a nice tip for your staff.

we absolutely loved dining at the silo cookhouse! we’re locals and have heard very good things about it, so we decided to spend our 3-year anniversary here, and i’m so glad we did. everyone was friendly, attentive, and personable. millicent took care of us and was one of the highlights of our evening! we will be back.

The selectionw as innovative and varied for all palates - and everybite was delicious. The presentation was exellent and the number of GF and V choices was impressive. Love the elegant yet relaxed atmosphere. Our compliments to the chef!

Our party of six were all pleasantly surprised as this was our first visit. Two locals in this party and the rest outlanders. We were greeted warmly and our waiter was well-informed about the menu and preparation of the food. Our starters were all over the top delicious and chef-inspired. The BLT was by far the favorite but bacon board was also a hit. We all ordered either the ribs or their famous lemon-dusted fried chicken. Everyone enjoyed their dinner immensely and boxes were brought to take an abundance of this delicious fare home for leftovers! It will not be wasted! I can not close without commenting on the ambience. It was warm, inviting and cleverly decorated. We will return!
