“Hands down the best place in town. Service is consistently good, and so is the food. We brought our family in and they were able to make something special for our vegan family member. So accommodating! The service is always great. The owners are always present and always such a joy. This place has the best food in town, with a menu that changes seasonally there's always something different. The short ribs and beer salad are to die for. My husband always gets whatever pork they have, right now it's the pork chop. Only place I like to recommend for a great night.”

“Whether we choose to dine indoor or out, as a couple or with friends, the atmosphere, food and wine of this restaurant has been drawing my husband and I back again and again for a number of years. The owner and servers are friendly and welcoming. Especially important to us is Lisa who knows wines that we like, understands our palette, is attentive to timing our meals so there is no rush and no waiting.”

“Always eat here when in Chico. Awesome food, service and very nice people! Year or so ago, my wife ended up in the hospital in Chico from a bicycle accident, and they insisted on sending over a dessert on the house! Atmosphere is great inside, at the bar and on the patio. Had dinner during the holidays, and they were slammed, but the service did not suffer and the food was spectacular. Highly recommend you stop here if you are in the area.”
