Our tale began in the heart of the kitchen, with just a handful of humble ingredients and a spark of inspiration. Before we knew it, we were crafting dishes that whispered (or sometimes shouted) to every palate.

At STORY, inspiration isn’t just a goal—it’s a promise. Maybe it’s the bold, unapologetic flavors of our pizzas or the inventive twists in our craft cocktails. Perhaps it’s the ambiance that wraps you up and makes you feel... something. Or maybe it’s the company you keep around the table that makes it all unforgettable.

So, sit back and let our service do more than just serve—let them captivate you with the stories behind our dishes, the magic in our drinks, and the passion of our owner, who dreamed up this space just so you could add your own story to ours.

    We had the turkey dinner. Turkey was good. Gravy oversalted. Dressing was nothing but bread cubes. It was terrible. Could not eat it; however, we were offered another meal. We have tried other items on the menu, salmon, chicken piccata and all were delicious.

    Story has been newly remodeled and it’s beautiful. We had brunch on Sunday at 11am. All staff, including our server, was kind. The menu was simple and the food was average. The bad part was the restroom. It looked like it hadn’t been cleaned since before the Saturday night rush. It was a complete turn off.

    We had an early reservation and the doors weren’t even open. When we did go in they were still setting up, no new supplies in the bathrooms/dirty, not cleaned from the previous night. We should’ve just left. Service was ok, food just ok. Won’t come back for breakfast—it’s really not a breakfast place.

    We stopped in for lunch and was greeted by very friendly faces. The service and food were excellent and we were very impressed with the decor and loved the fact that the restaurant was not overly noisy. The bar area looks fun too and we plan to return soon. Also, the menu and pricing is excellent. Best Arnold Palmers we have ever tasted.

    So happy we have this new gem in our neighborhood. Paula our server was fun and very attentive to our needs. Everyone in our party loved what they ordered and we all took turns trying each others food. (We’re family 😁) we had the braised short ribs, the smash burger, pesto pizza & the chicken picatta. We are looking forward to going back and trying something else on the menu very soon!
