    I had made reservations months before and at the beginning of the week of our reservation, they announced the restaurant was permanently closing the night we were to be there. I was a bit concerned that the menu would be limited but the full menu was available. As I had previously heard, the food and service was fantastic. We had ordered the bbq chicken, pasta with scallops, ricotta bread and some drinks. The atmosphere was excellent and despite them permanently closing that evening, it felt like everyone wanted Red Feather to go out on top.

    Everything was delicious! For apps we got the shrimp and lobster cocktail which came with a cocktail and tartar sauce, but what made it was the lemon curd! We also got the focaccia with a truffle butter that was really good. Entrees we got lobster butternut squash carbonara which was hearty and they do not skimp on the lobster! We also got the scallops that nearly melt in your mouth. I highly suggest creamsicle cloud for dessert. It was the perfect dessert. Oh yeah, the drinks were great too. We got the smoked pear which was dangerously good, it’s also a very well balanced drink. Our server was Mark and he was very nice and made excellent recommendations.
