Unique dining option. Friendly service. Recommend! Three ladies split appetizers, salad and entrees. Although portions are not large, everything was excellent!
Maybe the best meal of my life! I've eaten in Michelin restaurants that were less memorable. Patrick, the manager, was a delight. The rockfish was mind-blowing and the gnocchi was like eating clouds full of love. Just divine!
As you walk into the dimly lit restaurant be prepared for a blast of warm air even on a relatively cool 73 degree evening. No air conditioning and no ventilation. Standing fans at each table. Waiter most unfriendly but then again I would be too if I had to stand at a table with sweat running down my face. Told to take a picture of the menu board upon entering as there is no QR code or paper menu. 6 appetizers and 4 mains. Normally, say on a cold winters night, I would order rabbit but in the dead of summer seems a bit heavy. Apparently there is no ice in the building either as water, served in chipped glasses, was room temperature and oysters missed a cool ice bed leaving them feeling the heat. The bread and fat was tasty. Salad, taking up a spot on the limited menu, needed more than 3 ingredients. Rockfish overcooked and needed salt. On a nice summer night no reason to eat here. Unfortunate.
After a great meal here in 2020, we were excited to return, especially since the restaurant’s interior had re-opened. We had a very nice experience! The restaurant has a clean, simple interior with a ‘shabby chic’ quality. I think it fits with the vibe of the town of McMinnville and the region. Very ‘farm to fork’ feel, in-line with our first experience. Small, focused menu, written on a chalkboard. Some appetizers/salads, a small set of mains, with focus on pasta and fish. And a few desserts. Plates on the smaller side, but flavors spot-in. Simple and fresh, not overly complex. Each thing we had was well-prepared; the beet salad was especially delicious, as was a strawberry shortcake dessert. Fish was perfectly cooked and well-matched with accompaniments. Service was warm and welcoming—very casual approach. Great conversation.
