Whether you're sipping a cold drink or enjoying a locally inspired dish, everything feels thoughtfully curated but never pretentious. The real magic happens as the sun begins to set. The sky transforms into a canvas of warm oranges and purples, If you're looking for a peaceful spot with great service, good food, this riverside retreat is well worth the short drive from downtown."
"Came here with my sister and a group of kids. The whole experience went so smooth even with the little ones. They had good food options for our picky eaters. Chicken tenders, fries, and Mac and Cheese. They ate mostly everything and asked to take the rest home! The Mac and cheese was soooo cheesy and creamy my niece gave it a 10/10. Us adults ordered 2 appitizers the eggrolls and the lettuce wraps. Both delicious especially the lettuce wraps. Our entrees were the pasta and a T-bone and fries. Both entrees were very delicious. We had two servers with one in training. Both were pleasant and took very good care of the table. Kept empty dishes clear, and kept drinks topped off checked in a good amount of time. Never had to look for them. Will definitely add this to my list of frequent visits."
"We stopped by this place around 8 a.m. on a Sunday for breakfast. They’re open only from 7 to 10 a.m. in the morning before closing and reopening later in the day. It was a slightly rainy morning by the river, which made the whole atmosphere feel cozy, calm, and laid-back. Parking was easy — we found a spot right in front and walked straight in. The restaurant wasn’t empty but not crowded either — just the perfect morning buzz. We started with coffee — I ordered a regular coffee with cream, which they kindly refilled later, and one of us ordered a latte that oddly came with foam on top, more like a cappuccino. For food, two of us went with the American breakfast, while the others ordered the Cajun omelette. The American breakfast was tasty but came in surprisingly small portions — we joked that it was served “European-portion.” The scrambled eggs (supposedly two eggs) seemed less than that, and the house fries, though delicious, were given in a small quantity. The toast was fine, served with jam, butter, and preserves. I had bacon, which was good, and my friend chose sausage links, which he enjoyed. The Cajun omelettes were hit or miss — one was served hot and flavorful, while the other was closer to room temperature, which left us unsure if it had cooled before serving."
"Fourth of July and we didn’t want BBQ. David and Brandy are a dream team. Great service, great energy and the food was good as well. The only reason I rated a 4 instead of 5 is when we entered the host and bar tender BOTH looked at us and turned to continued their conversations with no greeting or acknowledgment which was extremely rude. David came from the kitchen and greeted us with a big smile. Then the host acknowledged us afterwards. David is the real MVP."
"We came in a little late, service was fantastic. Restaurant was clean, we were seated quickly at a window table. Our food was very good, served hot, we were attended to very well and lacked for nothing."
