Restaurants near West Branch Guard Station

Food was average which was disappointing for the price. The duck dish I ordered was like dry chicken. For a steak house to char the steaks on a grill was strange. Small portions, not a lot of flavor. Also sad because service was great. Food did not match.

The food was exceptional: the antipasta, the night's special mushroom soup, the Bianchi e Nere pasta, and the sea bass special were all excellent. The service offered just the right amount of attention to our table.

Small wait with reservations, however it was a Friday night and Valentine’s Day! Well staffed and friendly. Server, Marin, was fabulous. Food never disappoints!!

We decided to do an early valentines dinner to avoid the day of chaos. We haven’t been since the change in ownership. It looks beautiful. It took a couple of minutes to be acknowledged, but it was clear they were busy, so not a big deal. We were given an option of where to sit, which was nice. We think it was one of the owners who ended up taking our orders for wine and food. She was delightful and helpful. We ordered the wild mushroom risotto and the chicken with a honey-lavender glaze. The risotto was delicious, but I’ve got to tell you, that chicken was perfection. I typically like to order unusual dishes because what’s the point of eating out if I’m not going to try something I’d never make myself? Chicken is not usually exciting. It’s safe and pretty easy, but this seriously catapulted it into a symphony in my mouth status. I also deeply appreciate that they make everything as it’s ordered. It takes a little time to get it, but it’s very much the way this sort of dining experience should be. If you’re looking for a quick in and out meal, this is not the place. If you’re looking for a lovely, leisurely meal that gives you time to fully savor your company, the atmosphere, yummy wine and incredible food, this is the place.

First visit since they reopened after holiday break. Pretty quiet due to all the snow. Really liked some of the new items on the menu. The kale caesar was unusual but delicious. Wife absolutely loved the NY steak. Crushed olive martini and kiwi pisco also good....but that was expected.
