Was so grateful to the sweet hostesses who squeezed us in with our 2 y/o before the dinner rush on MDW weekend! We live in the area but had never visited and everything was truly exquisite - the portions, the presentation, the flavors, and the team. Easily the best tasting meal I’ve had this year. So looking forward to going back again!
Excellent food and prompt service make for a great time. The food was perfect...right amount of seasoning, right-sized portions, and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the beet salad, tuna tartare, free bird chicken and beef short rib (served over obviously homemade papardelle) while saving room for their brownie, which I would say was just rich enough to remain somewhat "light".
I had the short rib pappardelle and it was amazing. Great food and nice atmosphere.
Really enjoyed our dinner here. The food was great; I had the braised short rib and ate every bite. The cocktails were delicious as well! The service was excellent. Would absolutely come back.
Seven of us went for dinner and everyone loved their meals. Unfortunately, our reservation was for ten, but only seven showed. The restaurant was very understanding even though it was embarrassing on our group's behalf. The only complaint that I have is that when I confirmed the reservation, I asked if we could do separate checks and the woman said absolutely no problem. However, the waitress seemed really put out and had a bit of an attitude when I asked before we placed our orders. I have been a waitress before and I don't understand why some find this to be an obnoxious request. It's really not that hard to do; if requested before orders are placed. Otherwise, everything else was perfect and all of us said that we'd definitely go back. They have a beautiful outdoor patio as well.
Wonderful! What a great setting and service. The food was paired excellently. Great attention to detail and fresh tastes. Will definitely have to visit again!
Wonderful dinner! Delicious food and great service. The outdoor patio dining was so pleasant & relaxing. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday with my husband. :)
A delightful farm-to-table experience. From the cozy atmosphere to the exceptional quality of food and courteous servers, this place was an excellent destination to have dinner with my wife on her birthday. First and foremost, the ambiance was warm and inviting. Whether you're on a romantic date or enjoying a meal with friends and family, this restaurant offers a relaxed and intimate environment that makes you feel right at home. The farmhouse is a hidden gem that you must visit. The cozy atmosphere, the top-notch quality of food, and the courteous servers make it an outstanding culinary destination.
