He was fantastic, good was good. He was good with my son as well. Will be coming back!Posted on Bill SeidlJanuary 6, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my first time here and all.I can say is AMAZING! The staff was extremely nice and attentive. The interior.had an old school vibe with dark wood. The food was very delicious. I had the swordfish and my wife had the beef wellington. Both had a buttery melt in your mouth texture. I will return. I highly recommend.Posted on Carrie SeidlJanuary 4, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I'd eat here again and again.Posted on primoDecember 25, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Coming in the staff were friendly. Food came out quick and the quality was superb. The cooks definitely pay close attention to detail as the presentation was very appealing. Windows also offer a nice view. Saw a sign saying “best crab cakes” and lives up to its’ name! Other places fill their crab cakes with flour and theirs is straight up crab. Great experience over all!Posted on TwinstreamfarmDecember 24, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The experience is top notch. Food is fantastic and the staff is great. So accommodating to make sure you have a fantastic dinner. Bruce is one of the best chefs around. Thank you Larry for a top notch operation here.
