    First time dining at OBC and it did not disappoint! Drinks, appetizers and entrees were all amazing! We got right in at reservation time and they were busy but you wouldn’t know it! All our food came out timely and hot and the service was excellent! We will be back, highly recommend!

    Trevor is an exceptional employee and took care of our table of four. He ensured our food was delicious and all our needs were met. All the staff at OBC is outstanding but Trevor really went above and beyond for us. As always, the food was delicious. Love the atmosphere and cozy feel of this restaurant!
