Visited here for the Edgar Allen Poe reading. So fun! I had never been here before and I was…read morepleasantly surprised at the grounds. Lots of seating options: on the lawn, under a covered patio and inside. The bar area was huge and had whiskey, non alcoholic options and of course wine- theirs and international ones. Food menu had some great options. We bought a bottle of German wine (we didn't like any of their wines) and ordered the charcuterie board and the apple/sausage flatbread. The flatbread was delicious! The bread was soft and yet a bit crispy on the edges and the toppings were plentiful. The charcuterie board had plenty of cheeses, cold cuts, flatbread slices, vegetable salad (?) and dipping sauces. I was disappointed there were no olives though. We sat on the covered patio that had overhead heat lamps which helped to keep us warm. I loved the vibe there! All the servers were so friendly and everything was clean and well kept.

It was a pleasant day so the garage door was open to the patio, but we chose to be seated inside. We started with the Brussel sprouts and the Ahi tuna appetizers and both were tasty. I tried the Chicken Veritas, which was very good. My friend chose the center cut filet which she liked, and both of our husbands got the paella and thought it was outstanding. Our server was prompt and had good suggestions for us, as this was our first time to try Veritas. The experience overall was great and we all decided we would gladly return.

We visited on a Monday afternoon around 5:30. We knew that we could bring in outside food since…read morethey don't really serve food, which was fine with us. The beer and whiskey options are fantastic! So many different things to try - many of which I hadn't heard of before. Our group tried different beers as well as a few of their whiskey cocktails. We really enjoyed all of our choices. The only reason this is not a 5-star review is that the bartender was not very personable. We are the type of people that like to try different things, so we have questions and would like some options or opinions from those that work there. She didn't really offer much banter or discussion, poured our drinks, and then left and never really followed up. She sat behind the bar, chatting with what seemed like a friend, and never checked in again. And when we went up to the bar to order another drink, it felt like we were interrupting her chat.

Make reservations because they had a two hour wait for walk-ins. For appetizers we shared their burnt ends. Tender and sauced perfectly. For dinner we shared a wedge salad, their mashed potatoes, asparagus (a must!), and their tomahawk steak! Instead of doing three separate steaks we did the one and it was a perfect size for all of us to share! The steak was tender and well seasoned, mashed potatoes creamy, and the asparagus was prepared in a way we hadn't had before - highly recommend! We also had their dessert lemon meringue pie and coconut cream pie! Really really good! Wine options: amazing! Bourbon options: classy! We couldn't give it five stars for two main reason: 1. We made a reservation for 7pm, arrived and check in at 6:50 and still had to wait just over 30 minutes to be seated. We learned that walk-ins had been seated ahead of us so we needed to wait for some tables to leave before we could be seated. This was a bit surprising. We understand waiting a few minutes, but 30 min is not okay. 2. The sweet server assisting us for dinner was in training and we learned from her "trainer" that she wouldn't be getting any of the tips from our dinner. Additionally, the "trainer" came over around 830 to tell us that although it was only three of us that gratuity is automatically included. Very odd that we were told these things during our meal. The server being trained should absolutely get a portion of the tips - we hope restaurant management reconsiders their policy on this especially since we hardly saw her "trainer". We normally tip over the 20% but because the trainer didn't get any of our tips, we opted to not increase the tip that was automatically charged to us. All in all really classy restaurant and food was delicious! We'll be back for sure!
