Very nice overall & the lunch special is $40 with wine, entree & a maple syrup pie. I feel that I drank a whole bottle of maple syrup eating the pie, but it was so good that I'm still think about it a week later.

I got the lunch special, which is a three course meal. A super unique building that was fun to eat in! It's on the pricey side though

We had a lovely lunch here on a snowy day at a charming table by the fireplace. The wait staff was extremely friendly & helpful in making the best choice for a meal. We had several dishes we'd never tasted before & they were delicious. You
