Website does not make it clear! I want to preface, I had frequented the Spa restaurant in the 1970-1990's. The ambiance and history of the place made it so charming, along w the raccoon show! I am thrilled someone is keeping the speakeasy alive! So many wonderful memories!! With that said, I don't live " down the street" so to speak. We come out on Sunday's to hike the nearby trails or use the beaches. With the area now designated as a National Lakeshore, it would be to this establishments benefit to open from 11 am /12pm on Saturday & Sunday! If I knew they would be open, I'd love to stop in after spending time at the National Park! You're losing business to Wagner's!

It looked like reservations are highly recommended if you're planning to dine in. The ambience was elegant, calm, and intimate, and the service was hard-working, cheerful, and accommodating. Our large group ordered a variety of drinks, and not a single person was disappointed. I can personally vouch for the espresso martini and the Fashioned in Apple; both perfectly suited my tastes. For dessert, a friend ordered the chocolate mousse while I chose the Yule Log. The presentation was gorgeous and delicate, and of course, they were delicious. Now I just need to come back to try the food. The prices might sting a bit, but I have a feeling my taste buds will convince me it's worth it.

A quick tip: definitely call ahead for a reservation. The dining area is small but cozy, offering a really intimate vibe. The cocktails were fantastic, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. The food? Outstanding. You can tell the owner knows a thing or two about authentic flavors--probably from time spent traveling and living abroad. I really appreciated how true the dishes stayed to their roots. The semi-open kitchen was also a great touch--it shows they're confident in their craft and proud of what they're serving. I'm not usually big on desserts, but wow. Honestly, they might be more known for their desserts than the entrees, but both were amazing. What really pulls it all together is the service--attentive, thoughtful, and full of personality. That's what makes this place special.

For us the burger and chicken were ok, the pork was good but not great. The cornbread waffle though, now that was tasty. I would go again and try some different things to see if anything was really great. It did look like a great beer selection, that just wasn't what we were looking for this time.

The friend of the owner then tells the owner to kick us out and so the owner goes up to my husband and forcefully shoves him out of the bar without listening to our side of the story. If he would have let us explain our side, the owner would've realized his friend was calling our friend (the one who wasn't actually with us) homophobic slurs and was being aggressive and trying to pick a fight with us. Obviously the owner doesn't condemn homophobia and is ok with letting his friend harass customers. Wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. I should also mention, my friends (the ones the owner's friend was harassing me over) went to Cellar Door on 2/21 in hopes to talk to the owner and explain the issues the owner's friend caused, but the owner blew them off and wouldn't talk to them. Unfortunately the staff at this place is great, but the ownership will be the downfall of this bar. They don't care about their customers, only protecting their own interests (or homophobic friends).
