| - I have walked right by this place on my way down to the marina's countless times, finally stopped and am very glad that I did!
I had a glass of Riesling to start (had no heard of the brand, but delicious), and the fried pickles (cauliflower, zucchini, yellow squash, pea pods) the batter that they were in was wonderful, as was the dill sauce. (5$) followed that by the zucchini soup (gazpacho style, 6$ I think) I was a bit nervous, but I just had to try. The soup was incredible, very light. I placed a take out order for their chicken salad sandwich, cherries, sharp cheddar, and peas on rye bread (again, a wonderful menu item!) (not sure on $).
While talking to the bartenders, I found out that they have a large garden at their disposal in the area. They grow their veggies etc, they have hens as well that will be producing their eggs. Everything they serve, with few exceptions (citrus, liquors, a few spices) comes from within the state.
Additionally, the chefs in the kitchen (2) create the menu, prepare, plate, and serve every menu item that is enjoyed. So every order is created with pride.
My only downside that I can find is that they didn't open closer to my house! I'm glad that I stopped in!
