    Thanksgiving buffet. Beautiful venue. $55 per person for meh food. Fine flavors, no bread. Cider cocktail not good. (Tried to make all four in our party drink it just to consume it.) Front staff was helpful.

    The menu is quite limited, but possibly that is why what they serve is very good. The beet salad was exceptional, our entrees were quite good and the chocolate ganache was great. Wide selections of beer and wine. Service was great. Only suggestion - which is minor was both my husband and I had entrees with a sauce at the bottom of the chicken and salmon - both sauces were a little cold. Maybe it was plated before the meat and fish were done or maybe cool bowls??

    Dined for brunch. The french toast was excellent and delicious. The frittata was a scrambled egg with cheese and tomato - would not order again. The Bloody Larry was very spicy, and I couldn't drink it. Our server was great.
