"We were hungry and were looking for a place nearby. We used to eat there, but I didn't make any reviews at the time and couldn't remember if we liked them. When we moved in at 8ish on a Saturday night and the parking lot was not very full, it seemed like a strike against them. We went in and sat fast. On the way to the table, however, I could see two cabins with large sections of the seating panel and the wooden tables had seen better days. Strike two. We sat at a stand with a tear in the size of a frisbee. No lie! Strike three was the menu that was worn and so sticky that the pages were glued together. This is a pet of mine. I can't sticky, grimy menus!!! I mean, come to people I touch my menu and then maybe touch my food. GROSS! If I wasn't so slow, (yes, not hungry, hungry) that could have been the time when I came out. Unfortunately we stayed.... Service was okay, but not the greatest we ever had. The waitress came around several times, but disappeared during the lunchtime. The saving grace is that the food was really good. Hubby had buffalo chicken wrap and subbed out fries for a salad with bleu cheese. Dressing was good and he likes his Bleu cheese. Salad was good with fresh ingredients and delicious grapes. Wrap was a decent size with some heat and good taste and decent chicken, but well proportional to salad, and tomatoes. Ranch Dressing on the packaging. He also had an IPA that was on special sale. I had the fish and chips and underbed regular frits for Parmesan garlic frying. The pommes were really good with lots of parmesan and not with an overwhelming garlic taste. The fish had a crispy, slightly fritted cover on it, which when you in it a little discovered the damp, large pieces of white fish. The fish had a good taste and no fishy taste like some. There were three hooded fish. More than enough. And a bunch of pommes. There was also lemon, malt vinegar and a delicious tartaric acid sauce that was delicious. I would definitely go back there because the food was so good, but next time I find out what I want before time so I don't have to touch their menus."

"It was a perfect crisp fall evening. Our anniversary in fact. We had done some celebrating on our own and had our two kiddos ages 4&6 and my Mom in tow for dinner. We stumbled upon this place. It looked very cute. Yelp reviews were decent. So we gave it a shot without even looking at the menu first. Little did I know what a treat I was in for! Very cute little converted house turned restaurant. The front porch seating is very charming. Unfortunately, they were completely booked. It was a Saturday night. So I'm guessing reservations are probably a good idea. The changing art on the interior makes for an interesting vibe and is obvious the theme of the place. The candles, white linens and water carafes at the tables are a nice touch. I love not having to wait for water as I drink a ton of it! Love the pew benches and pillows. Very cozy. The delicious smell hits you when you walk in the front door and you can't help but notice the gelato staring at you and the unique coffee menu too. Chai cider caught my eye. Sounds perfect for the fall day that it was! I didn't have it however. Maybe next time. One caffeinated drink a day is plenty for me. The hostess and waitress were both very nice and attentive although my Mom had noted after we left no one asked if we wanted parm cheese after we received our meals. Not a big deal. Menu: unexpectedly amazing choices for vegans!! Woo hoo! I had no idea and was so pleasantly surprised at the variety. Even vegan cheese and seitan! I ordered the Pan Roasted Seitan With plum tomatoes, garden peas, canelli beans, avocado and soy mozzarella over a bed of organic brown rice. It was $16 and huge! And delish!!! I've never had a dish like this. I loved it. My husband had the pumpkin ravioli in walnut cream sauce special and he loved his. $22 Kiddos gobbled up their raviolis from the kids menu $8 and my Mom had the roasted chicken which she said was just ok. The bread was warm but nothing to write home about. I later read they make it fresh. It didn't necessarily seem that way. My family got gelato to go afterwards. We are all quite picky after having been to Italy and they actually said the chocolate was amazing! Big points for the romantic lighting, front porch seats and plethora of vegetarian and vegan options. I would definitely come back and try other vegan dishes. We wish we would have known it was BYOB or about the music of Friday nights. Better planning next time! But great find!"
