Upon pulling into the Parking lot, you can see it is architecturally very interesting. It is a registered historical site and the interior and exterior just begs to explore.
We arrived around 4:30pm and were seated immediately. The section we sat in, we were alone initially but soon filled in with several more people soon after. Where we were seated and an excellent view of the train tracks that run parallel to the restaurant and each time a train passed by, several of the surrounding tables had children jump on chairs to marvel at the passing trains.
Service was excellent, our waitress stayed on top of our beverages and refills and was by the table often without being overbearing.
Food wise, for an appetizer, we ordered the Tempura fried mozzarella moons. They came out quickly and were clearly prepared and made in-house. They were stuffed with cheese and were quite tasty. The marinara sauce was also quite good but as a forewarning, the sauce is cold/cool so it contrasts against the hot wedges.
For our main course, I got the turkey Cobb salad and a baked potato on the side. My wife got the short rib melt with fries. The Cobb salad was decently proportional for the price, the plating was well done and everything was as expected for a good turkey Cobb. Had the house Italian and that paired very well with the salad. The baked potato was perfectly done and exactly what I was looking for in a plain baked potato.
The short rib melt was quite delicious as well. The onions were cooked expertly and the meat was well seasoned and flavorful. The fries were seasoned well and were great.
For dessert, we got an order of cheesecake which was served with a few dollops of whipped cream and a raspberry drizzle. Cheesecake was a decent size and was good.
All in all it was a great experience and will be a place we will come back to in The future for sure.
As we sat waiting for our entrees we heard and watched the staff tend to the other patrons. The entire staff was very accommodating. One table wanted relocated because of the abundance of children another group enjoyed. One dish delivered wasn’t quite what was wanted and was quickly replaced for a gentleman. Each and every dish was ample in portion. We had nothing but a quality dining experience and plenty left-over to box up and take home. We were there with family from Florida and Missouri visiting. We sat and talked awhile (quite awhile!) but no one got antsy about us sitting so long and eventually ordered coffee & dessert. The dessert ordered was the bread pudding. WOW!
The staff is so gracious. We just thouroughly enjoyed our time there.
THANKS!
The service was friendly but not phenomenal. For just the service, I’d give them 3-3½ stars.
The ambience and decor was very interesting. They get a full 4 stars from me for all the fascinating train-related pieces around the place.
The service however, was really, really, reeeeeeaaaaallllly slow. It would be very forgivable on the case of an extremely busy night, but it wasn’t super crowded. Server was pleasant, just too absent.
Could’ve been a one off experience, though.
