When choosing this location in 2005, we instantly fell in love with the charm and history that the building offered. Walking up the front steps you hear the creak of the original floor boards, and as you enter through the large Colonial doors you may find yourself twisting the old fashioned hand crank doorbell. Every detail of the building is historical, and every picture hanging on the wall gives you a glimpse of what life was like in the 1800’s.Along with our passion for keeping history alive, we also have an even greater passion for food. We only use the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients when crafting our dishes. Not only are we preserving the history of Liberty Corner, we are becoming part of the history too.Voted one of the Top 100 Al Fresco Dining Restaurants in the Country by OpenTable in 2015. Offering four separate dining rooms, you are sure to enjoy the atmosphere, along with your delicious meal. We look forward to being with you soon. We are a BYOB establishment.

    This was our valentine dinner. The place was very nice! All the host were wearing nice red dresses, the got me and my husbands coats and sat us at a timely manner. Got a beautiful flower and a great table with a nice view, we got a good waiter that informed us about the menu and showed us some good choices of drinks and food. Appetizers were good! And the main meal was amazing! Had a surf and turf and my husband got a loaded lobster, and a strong lemon drop. Overall the staff was nice cared for our needs and told us goodnight as we were leaving. 10/10

    Great service on Valentine’s Day. We were not rushed at all, they gave complimentary roses to the ladies, and we were also given two complimentary shots when the main courses were delayed a short time. For such a busy night, they handled it like any other night. Definitely recommend for any special occasion because they are in their toes all the time.
