    We had Thanksgiving dinner at the restaurant. We’re vegans but semi cheated by choosing vegetarian options. The food and service were excellent, and the ambiance was perfect for a holiday dinner. It was a little expensive, although it was a holiday and it’s a resort town. We should note that the service was particularly good. I doubt you can find a more welcoming and warm restaurant staff.

    the menu of fixed or al a carte from the menu give options for dining, the addition of gamey dishes to a balanced menu makes this a great foodie choice
