From the jump, our waitress (Ava) was MIA. When she finally appeared, she brought water (hooray!) but forgot the lemon. We asked again. And again. Apparently, citrus is harder to find than the Lost Ark.
The Prime Rib arrived… and so did confusion. My plate was cold enough to register as an Antarctic outpost, while the Open Face Prime Rib Sandwich next to it was basking in Florida sunshine. Medium, we had asked. Medium, it was not. The hostess, bless her, tried: “That’s definitely not Medium.” Correct! It was more like cryogenic.
We declined a do-over because, frankly, we’d grown attached to our chairs after the long wait. Instead, the hostess slid us a $5 coupon as if to say, “Please, gamble again!” Spoiler: we’re not rolling those dice.
When our waitress reappeared—after socializing like a campaign manager at another table—she was thrilled to announce she knocked $8 off our $65 bill. Meanwhile, our water glasses sat drier than Death Valley.
And then came the kicker: a “Kitchen Sur-Charge.” So let me get this straight—I paid extra for the privilege of cold Prime Rib? If irony were edible, I’d have left stuffed.
Final Thought:
If you enjoy scavenger hunts (for lemons, servers, and hot food), this is your place. If not, save yourself the “sur-charge” and head somewhere your steak comes warmer than your coupon discount
Came in with my family as a group of 6 and the food came out fairly quick and every single one of us didn’t just enjoy our meal, we were absolutely shocked by how DELICIOUS everything was.
Everything was amazing, definitely worth the price!
My date and I went for an evening out and were pleasantly surprised by the juxtaposition of a Michelin class menu in a quaint and homey diner-esque restaurant. I myself was even more floored by not only the service (thank you, Ashley) but by the food as well. From appetizer, entree, and dessert, my palate was in marvel and awe. Every bite just as fantastic as the last. I had to let our server know to please commend the chefs for such exemplary presentation and delivery. Everything was cooked to desired PERFECTION if that had ever been achievable to begin with. Without droning on, I can not recommend having dinner here enough.
For 2 people, 3 courses shared with a bottle of wine and 20%+ gratuity, we spent $150. BEYOND worth it.
The only reason this isn’t a full 5-stars is just the misleading atmosphere. You definitely get contemporary cafe/diner vibes for a place that’s a little more conservative.
Side note and entirely not on the restaurant, but the clientele aren’t nearly as hospitable and accommodating as the staff. While my date and I aren’t the type of people to be easily offended, it was comical the amount of side-eyes and, at times, blatant stares we received by other guests. Sure, we looked a little macabre compared to the rest of the crowd, but we had plans after dinner too. No harm no foul, just a little funny.
2022: Sami and the team were wonderful! Great food. Limited indoor seating. Spoons can get pretty busy sometimes around dinner time so I highly recommend calling ahead for a reservation (they DO NOT accept reservations for dinner if you call before 4 pm).

You order here at the counter whenever you are ready and have a call back button to pick up your food. The menu has a huge variety of food so you can even take those picky eaters here. Burgers, fish, soups, sandwiches, salads, pastas, sides, desserts, and a kid’s menu. They also have coffee, juices, sodas, smoothies and milkshakes. Everything here tastes amazing and is very reasonably priced. I will be coming here a lot to not only enjoy the huge menu and great food, but also the giant outdoor eating area. The property is huge and beautiful and I love walking around after my meal. I even took my dog here while I ate outside and it was no problem at all
The majority of the ingredients are from local farms. We (family & I) had the burger with sweet potato fries, a grand valley burger with shoe string fries, and a beef quiche with fruit. All 3 meals were delicious. One surprising discovery was the stubborn black cherry soda with tarragon (yum).
Overall, I had a great time and yummy food
