    Wonderful setting! Our serving staff was professional and caring. We were each given a post card to address and write a note on. We were told that the Farmhouse would mail it for us. We had a delicious meal. The soups and pizza were exceptional! We always return! Thank you!

    Wonderful experience! Will be going back. Busy restaurant and a bit loud but the service was fantastic and the food was insane. We started with the oyster sampler and then I got the Wild Alaskan Black Cod with broth and noodles and it was so delicious. Brought our own wine because no corkage!
