Build your own charcuterie board was great. Highly recommend the brie, smoked gouda, bread and butter pickles, prosciutto, and fig jam. Cocktails and wine were outstanding.

It was my first time going and the process of ordering food/drinks was not explained. We sat at the table for about 10 minutes before I had to flag someone down to inquire about the wait. I was eventually updated and things went smoothly afterwards. They should make a point to inquire about informing guests of ordering procedures prior to sitting down.
