    Was asked at time of reservation what the occasion was, I took the time to input this was a celebration of a birthday with my GF being 10 years clean from drugs and alcohol. Nothing was every mentioned and as soon as we were seated the first thing the server talks about are the drink specials .... Not sure why this information was asked when it seemed to serve no purpose. Food was good, We started with the meatballs, the sauce seemed watery and almost like it was microwaved, not the most appealing to eat, however the meatballs themselves were good. I had the Bison, portions were a bit small but overall I enjoyed my meal. My girlfriend had the Bolognese (she wasn't super pumped it was made with beef heart, but in the end it was good as well) We did flourless cake for dessert, very nice! Server did suggest a mocktail once we told her we were there to celebrate sobriety, The sever seemed to be annoyed with my girlfriend but was nice to me. I was sold on the 5 course meal I heard about from some friends, it was VERY disappointing to know that unless myself and my girlfriend were to par take in the purchase of the 5 course that one person in the party cannot order this, BEWARE OF THIS .. if you want the 5 course meal be prepared to ensure your entire party is also wanting this as you cannot order it individually

    Exceptional service and food as always! We ordered the five course tasting menu for a birthday, and it was excellent throughout. I massively appreciated that guests can choose their own dishes for the tasting, and not that each guest has to have all the same things. Goat cheese pasta and bison carpaccio were stand outs.
