I have to say I have heard of this place for quite sometime but never been till now. The atmosphere, decorations and unique things of the restaurant were great.
The service was OK. My server had to go check on menu items multiple times to make sure my food was gluten free so I don’t have an reaction.
I was alittle taken back the there were so many empty tables for reservations not even there to get a small waiting table or freeze outside to dine in.
The deviled eggs could have had more flavor and not sure what was on top. The server said it was something that I had to Google and it said it was typically made from bread. .
I wasn’t impressed with the whole experience by far to have such a high fine dining standard in the area reputation.
I ordered the salmon that was a tiny slice that most restaurants would have given three of there slices. The server told me it was farm raised but not cramped packed in a tank like most.? Really ? That’s what farm raised is versus wild Alaska salmon is. If your going to charge that much it probably should be wild salmon. The grilled squash was very tasty but had a spicy bite to it. Not sure I liked it but better than the salmon.
I asked for a Greek salad to be brought a wooden board with a part of a stock ripped off a stock of romain lettuce with some white creamy dressing sauce just plopped on top with nothing else much. I asked why it was called Ceasars salad with no Ceasars oil dressing like most restaurants. No good answer.
The steak was very good but very small poured but definitely not 44 dollars worth.
The mashed potatoes were the best part of the meal.
Last but not least I ordered the creme brulee dessert in cinnamon. The display was great but the inside was not cooked enough or they used to high of heat to golden brown the top to fast not heating the inside like it should.
Overall, I was impressed with the service or quality of the food. The atmosphere and decor was awesome though.
Would I recommend this restaurant probably not after this experience in quality of food and price. I have travel the country eaten at the trump hotel that has much better food that matches these prices. It’s not about the money it’s the quality of the food.
Also you staff should have more training in allergy practice and what should be avoided.

I went here for my anniversary with my husband, our food was amazing, and our server was so nice! It ended up being such a wonderful way to spend our night!! For appetizers we shared the shrimp special which was very good and refreshing! For dinner I had the surf and turf special. The meat was cooked to perfection and the potatoes were to die for. The lobster was also amazing!! My husband had the fillet as well with scallops and they again were also delicious!! They know how to season their food for sure and their plating looks like it’s from a five star restaurant! I definitely can’t wait to go back!

I’m surprised at many of the negative reviews this restaurant received. My wife and I ate here for the first time tonight and found it to be an exceptional experience even when compared to other elegant restaurants in this category. First off, walking into the restaurant you are greeted by and aesthetically pleasing decor that sets the tone for a relaxing, unique and enjoyable meal. The service was prompt, attentive courteous and most importantly accurate. The food was well-prepared exactly to order and was absolutely delicious. We live a couple hours away and were traveling for business. We both agreed that it would be worthwhile on a Saturday afternoon to drive down to bring our family to this uniquely amazing restaurant. Thanks for a great experience.

Beautiful restaurant with a very unique menu. The new executive chef was a contestant on Bravo’s Top Chef and trained under Bobby Flay. Try the Baked Goat Cheese, it’s amazing! Be sure to ask for Thomas as your server! Love having this wonderful restaurant in Cleveland, TN.

We came here for our anniversary. First timers. The surroundings, food ,and waiting staff were all phenominal. I cannot say one bad thing about this establishment. My husband had the surf and turf, and I had the game platter, both which were cooked perfectly. I can say , without a doubt that everything including the drinks and on to the entree were cooked perfectly and served with kindness and expertise. Our server was very proud to work there and had many opinions on the selections. We will be back! Thank you for a wonderful dinner!

Atmosphere was nice with a good sized patio under cover. Service was slow at first but was better after we ordered. Menu was simple which is a good thing but the food was just ok. I had the chicken and waffle and the best part of the meal was the syrup. Waffle was good but the chicken had a very basic bland flavor with the breading almost tasting overcooked. My girlfriend had the filet and it tasted no better than a $10 steak that you buy at the store. If it was priced at ten bucks you wouldn’t hear me complain but for what they charge I expected more. I would recommend you give it a shot but I doubt we will be returning anytime soon.

We ate here recently as part of a large party.. We expected a slower service, because of the size of our group, but we were so disappointed by the experience. We were there four hours! After the dessert was served it was 45 minutes before we got our bill. Between courses we experienced significant waits and the waiters forgot the drink orders and had to be constantly reminded. in addition the entree orders were served to the wrong people. Also, the serving sizes were so small! The scallops were excellent, but there were only three on the plate! for $60! My “6oz fillet” was the size of a large egg. The family style sides were good, but who serves mashed potatoes and fingerling potatoes at the same meal? The decor is wonderful, but don’t eat here unless you are ready to pay big bucks for small (but excellent) portions.

This is an expensive restaurant and they are proud of their aged beef, however, I found the food to be average at best. My steak which I ordered medium rare came out rare and everything else was unremarkable. We dined with a party of 6 and the guests all felt it was overpriced with smallish portions and nothing that made you really take note. They have a very good wine list but it is marked up significantly. The atmosphere is nice and the service was good. Our bill was well over $100 for two and for that price I would much rather go to St. John’s in Chattanooga with similar prices but everything is outstanding. I will not be returning.

The new chef is terrible. Changed the entire menu and it is average at best. The mashed potatoes were the best part. Ordered the cheesecake to go and was not told it was a deconstructed dish and barely edible. Small portion sizes for the price. At least the drinks were decent. If you want a good meal worth the price go to Connors in Turkey Creek.

The service was very good, the food was so so
We were seated where we could see in the kitchen. One of the kitchen staff who was preparing the food has a very long bushy beard
Without using a beard net to keep his beard hair from falling into the food. This was my second time eating there. The first time was years ago after they first opened. The service and food were terrible then. Tonight the service was a lot better, however the food has shown little improvement over the years.
