Both burgers were very tasty and the accompanying fries were fresh and tasty. The chicken was a little on the dry side but the pesto was great. The tater tot side upgrade was a bad choice. They were overdone and pretty awful. We all opted for desert and the pies were soooo good. The lemon cloud was so refreshing and the strawberry peach was sweet and tart. The carrot cake was good but the frosting was too sweet and lacked flavor. The service was quick but the servers have a lot of tables so the waitress was not overly friendly or inviting. We felt like we were a task and not a guest. Would we go back? Yes but.....I would order differently and stick with the things that they are best at.

We came in on a Saturday morning for a family brunch and were taken care of right away. I ordered the BBQ Benedict, which seemed unique and like something I can't get just at any breakfast joint.

I love the idea the owner has about bringing fresh locally farmed ingredients to the menu. The menu is simple and it was perfect for lunch. We tried the tomato basil soup, smoked turkey sandwich and chicken salad sandwich. Everything tasted so good! Just a heads up, they aren't huge sandwiches but it was plenty for me.

Let's describe the restaurant - a french restaurant "out of place" in Alexandria Minnesota. So they…read moreserve sandwiches at lunch and dinner as a necessary way to provide interest in the restaurant. But - they have a very interesting french style dinner menu as well. Intriguing. We were traveling and our anniversary was while we were in Alexandria. We wanted something special, and a french dinner seemed cool. But wait. They had a "chef's table" as well. Not an everyday thing, and not inexpensive, but - a chef's table in Alexandria Minnesota? We were totally there. A five course meal, wines accompanying, and it was totally delightful. We often blog our travels, and we wrote pages about this meal. Kudos to Matthew and Amber!

The serving sizes here are very generous so don't let the prices scare you off. If you're a mortal with a typical appetite, you may need to share a dish with your bestie or partner else you'll definitely have leftovers! We had the cup of turkey with wild rice soup. It was flavorful and perfectly balanced with a heaping scoop of ingredients with every spoonful. The Willy Melt was a legend of a sandwich. I was blown away by the layers of action found with this item. Its a good beef patty with a perfect sear some melty cheese, thousand island, sauteed onions, and crumbled bacon all built between delightfully toasted slices of pumpernickel bread. Our waitress was attentive, proactive, and always checking to see if we needed anything - something that seems to disappearing in restaurants these days. We came hungry, left busting at the seams. It was a great experience.

We came in around 5:30 on a Friday and had no wait at all. Our server was excellent! They were very quick, attentive, and genuinely kind. Service was definitely the highlight. Food was more hit-or-miss. I had the Prime Rib Cheesesteak sandwich and it was just okay. The bread was pretty underwhelming, toppings were light, and there was barely any prime rib in there. The jalapeño cream cheese ended up being the saving grace flavor-wise. The fresh fruit on the side was disappointing too because they were tiny pieces and all kind of wilted. Overall, it's a nice place with great service and a fun interior, but the food didn't quite live up to the rest.
