    We thought we would try this restaurant in the hotel so as not to have to go outside on a cold evening. The space is nice and the waitstaff was friendly. Our waiter (probably new on the job) needed to be instructed regarding the wine listings, and then how to time courses so that the main entree doesn't arrive at the table a minute or two after bringing out the starter course, and then being asked if we are finished with our salad after only having a couple minutes to eat it. The food here was pretty good but you don't want to hear that your main course is going back under the heat lamp and is on hold because it came up at the same time as the salad!!

    Experience was fine. Still enjoyably as we had a good time. I order the shrimp coconut pasta and it was drowning in sauce. I ate the shrimp but left most of the pasta as it was very much like soup on my plate. My husband had the beef filet mignon and on one side was tough like leather with a stringy texture and there was way too many sprouts and onion strings. We both still ate as we were hungry after a long drive but I don’t think the food was worth $100. What saved our food experience was the wing appetizer. The wings were phenomenal and we would come back just for those! Great atmosphere, love the Christmas decor and the server was really good.

    It was very nice, but the service was a bit slow..the food was great, but overpriced. We had a table, next to us, that let their kids run all over the restaurant and they, themselves were way to loud for the setting!

    Long wait for pretzel enough for three, friendly service, have had better cherries in my old fashioned drink other than standard served (Luxardo and Bordeaux are better), some bar drink menu knowledge issues when ordering and extra charges on bill for items not ordered brought to waitstaff attention

    Food was great. Our server was a trooper. She had probably 8 tables to take care of and she was constantly moving. Service was slow but certainly not her fault. I assume they were short staffed. Don't people come to work anymore??

    Asked for ribeye steak cooked medium. There was very little to no pink, and the “char”/burn on the steak made it very bitter and not enjoyable. Wife’s scallops could’ve been seared better. Overall, not very impressed with the food for how much we paid for it. Best thing we had to eat was the cheese curd spring rolls.
