    Well it definitely was an experience and a tradition that will be done every year going forward! Our family of 19 had the entire porch with 2 round tables! The service and the food was exceptional! My Father of 85 years young was the happiest celebrating in such a beautiful place with his family! We can’t wait to come back!

    Meghan was our original waitress in the bar area and made us feel so welcome as we were celebrating a special birthday! She put a candle on her drink and then she made an easy transition to the dining room for our dinner. She is an absolutely extraordinary employee who is a keeper! She needs to be recognized for her special customer service! Thank you so much Meghan!
