The owners and staff were a joy to work with from start to finish and were incredibly accommodating in helping us bring our vision to life. The day went seamlessly, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. It was truly the best day!

Wow!! This place is amazing! If you like eating out at upscale restaurants, Modern Family Dinners…read morecan supply you with the same types of gourmet food right in your own home! I've copy cated food from nice restaurants, but by the time I buy all the ingredients, I've spent much more and have a bunch of extra ingredients that I won't use again!! I buy the meals for two and usually have left overs or our granddaughter helps us finish it! Lol! Deserts are awesome also!! I order online and then pick up on Saturdays. If I forget it on Saturdays I can pick it up on Mondays also. Very clean pick up location in Effingham! Would definitely recommend this business!

The room has a fridge, microwave, tv and wifi! Does need to be organized and cleaned up a bit better outside but it looks like they are in the middle if improvements. The owner was very friendly and have super customer service. That in and of itself is what gave it 5 stars!! It's rare anymore

My review will be limited as we came during their holiday schedule. We had reservations (an…read moreabsolute must) on Monday during the holiday season (normally closed on Monday). Their service was limited to drinks and a featured appetizer. The ambiance was stunning! Hats off to the designer of the Christmas decorations. The decor set the expectation of my experience and they did not disappoint!. There were 8 in our party and we ordered from the holiday drink menu, designed like a Christmas Card which is a genius idea. We tried 8 of their drinks and passed them around to taste. ALL were well balanced so hats off to the bartenders as the place was packed and it would have been easy to let your standards slip when you are as busy as they were. Although the place was packed our service was great. I can't wait to return and try their food menu. If it is anything like their attention to detail, I am so excited to return and I fully expect to post a great review. What a great evening with friends and a great kick off of the holidays. Just a quick note on pricing: This is not a chain restaurant so don't expect chain restaurant prices. My opinion is it is deserved price point when you consider the standards they set. It's a perfect place for date night, entertaining a client or a girls evening out.

This is a beautiful little rest stop off I-70, with a patch of forest and park that has clearly…read morebeen here for a long time. The trees have to be at least 40 years old, and they have grown in thick enough that the ground stays in shade pretty much all day. Even in the middle of summer it feels ten degrees cooler once you walk in under them. There is old-school playground equipment here, the kind most parks replaced years ago. I doubt it gets much use. Nice to see a little window of how things were back in time. Picnic benches are scattered through the trees, so you can eat something you brought along instead of sitting in the car. The whole area is well manicured and groomed. Somebody is clearly still taking care of the place, which you do not always see at a stop like this. It makes for a genuinely peaceful break on a longer drive. The bathrooms are indoors, so even with snow on the ground you can use the facilities without freezing. They were clean when I stopped. There are vending machines in the back too, which came in handy for a quick snack before getting back on the road. If you are driving through, this one is worth pulling off for instead of pushing on to the next exit.
