Breaskfast is always good! They have real southern grits. The chili cheeseburgers and chili cheese fries are great, especially late at night.

It's ok. Nothing spectacular. I ordered a half smoke, chili cheese fries and a shake. They charge you an extra $5 to make you the meal and want a tip. Never see...

"I came here for a quick solo dinner on a weeknight. Great healthy food, nice patio space, friendly staff! Easy to cater to dietary restrictions (GF DF). The gluten free cookie was to die for!"

"While the other three diners were satisfied with their eating, I was not. the rabbit roulade and the duck breast lubricated as if the dishes stayed too long under a heat lamp and were dry. while I like endive, this cooking method is completely ridiculous. Do not enjoy the room on the upper floor, as we enjoyed other areas of the restaurant in the past."

"Three of us enjoyed dinner on a busy Tuesday this week during the winter restaurant week, and we are already planning our return trip. two of us have ordered the limited RW menu, one from the regular menu. we shared tasting our appetizers, main thing and desserts, so that thoughts are unanimous: excellent eating, the appetizing of cuddly butter with spinat, and baked woof soup. the mains contain trout with mangles, salmon in a puff cage, and calf shoulder stew. for desserts, two could be deposited on apple cake with vanilla ice cream and one on dark chocolate mousse. service was attentive and professional, the meal comfortably occupied, and the menu simply screamed come back, there is much more to try!"

"It was an awful experience there was absolutely no ambience about the decor and the food was atrocious. The meat was old, unseasoned and chewy. The bread was cold. I actually covered the dish with a piece of bread because I didn't want to look at it while I waited for my Uber because it was so unappealing if not, gross. How did this restaurant get so many good reviews???"
