We were excited to eat in a historic venue. We found the wallpaper takes away from the history and beauty of the house unfortunately. It's beige-brown, modern, indecipherable and out of place. However, the food was very good. We ordered the salmon & rice with honey and peach pico. Everyone loved it! We also had their burgers, tried their oysters and their Mac and cheese. The burger was a solid and yummy burger. The Mac and cheese from the kids menus was a big plate that two small children probably could have shared. We were there on Tuesdays when they have the $1.25 oysters and they were fine, but shucked horribly. Shells everywhere, we were all taking them out of our moths. The oysters- or at-least some of them were macerated and left on the shell. It felt every bit $1.25. Our server was pleasant and upbeat. We enjoy any restaurant that brings complimentary bread to the table as a family with hungry little ones. We liked our visit and would return.

I'm glad, because with it being slightly off the 'main drag' in Middletown, we might not have seen it otherwise. We arrived towards the end of the dinner rush hour, and fortunately were seated over by where a musician was playing. It was a busy night, and we were tired and hungry from a day at the faire. As it was busy, there were sportsball games going and the musician playing, shouting was required for discussion and we had some funny misunderstandings YOUR GRAPE IS ON THE MOON? WHAT? Oh, your gravy is a little cool! :) The musician was great, playing lots of 70s and 80s hits, and he seemed to enjoy us singing along and dancing. We are, after all, rennies. We're glad he was enjoying us as much as we were enjoying his music. We got drinks and menus quickly, and our server was attentive without being pushy. After a few minutes looking over the menu, she appeared and we ordered. I got the Stampede Burger, while one of my friends got the Prime Dip sandwich (AKA French Dip), and one got chicken fingers. All came in reasonable time and were quite good, hearty food. So, why the one star off? Dessert. Could we have a brownie sundae? Out of brownies. OK, how about chocolate cake? Out of that, too. Uh...red velvet? Out. Basically everything chocolate. Sigh. Yeah, it was busy but not insane. We ended up not getting dessert, and it was disappointing. Whoever's managing food orders and prep, please do better. Also, if it's not available, it would have been great for the server to say so up front, that way she didn't have to tell us no 3 times. Parking in a private lot, plentiful. We would go again, we just will plan on dessert elsewhere.

On one hand I want to try again for dinner but for the price, I'm not sure it's worth it. Pros: Amazing service - very attentive server(s); we had one in training/shadowing and she was just as good as our primary server, offering refills, clearing plates, overall greet banter Cocktails are fantastic - had the Minnie Ripperton and loved it - creamy yet refreshing and bright which is a tough combo to achieve Cons: Hidden entrance - after circling what looked like an abandoned building 2x we finally figured out the entrance was in the backy and down a set of stairs. I now understand the "speakeasy vibe" but the clutter in the front made the building look abandoned or under construction; not a great start to the experience for us Food service - the other couple we were dining with got their entrees about 10 minutes before ours and we were some of the first orders & diners of the day. Usually you might hold the whole table or refire some of the dishes so it all comes out at the same time. They finished theirs before we even got our to start, making it a strange eating experience Small print menu - with the low light of the speakeasy, the menu had the teeeeniest print I've ever seen making it very difficult to read the menu options. We also didn't realize that the menu changes/is seasonal (not called out on the website) so many of the items we had wanted to try were not an available option. I love a menu that changes but hope it's indicated on the website (aka: sample menu, subject to seasonal change) Hit-n-miss: Fried chicken Benedict- huge portions, amazing biscuits and perfectly poached (but unseasoned?) eggs. I don't know if the hollandaise soaked into the fried chicken or never existed at all - and that's the thing you want with a Benedict. If it existed, it never reached the biscuits because while they were good, but were completely dry Shrimp and grits - perfectly cooked, great consistency, but very under-seasoned Water - just an observation and maybe it's just the local tap water flavor but it tasted off or as off the soap hadn't been washed from the glasses Pro Tip: be aware of the automatic gratuity in some circumstances; if you don't know, check the website before your meal!

I got what you could call a cheeseburger that looked nothing like the photos on the website; my kids got carne asada, and my wife got a burger on a salad. The carne asada: looked like old refrigerated steak that was reheated, both kids complained of gristle and poor taste. My "cheeseburger" arrived burned to blackness on one side, and medium well on the other. It was much flatter than the photos suggest. I alerted our waiter, who was attentive and an overall good waiter to the issue. Instead of correcting the issue with an unburnt patty, they returned the same patty, now with the other side also burnt and new piece of cheese to cover the original burned side, as if it would be be noticed. My wife enjoyed her salad; her patty she added was cooked appropriately, but still pretty flat. This is a place I can say I will 100% not be returning to and I encourage you, if a cheeseburger is what you crave, just drive a half mile to Burger King or Wendy's, where you will get a much better experience. It is so disappointing to wait to go somewhere, then drive 45 minutes to get there to have such a terrible experience. It was more than 100 dollars for very poor food, eating among flies buzzing around despite the patio being covered.

I ordered the chicken thighs, which is a rare treat to find on a menu. My only disappointment was that they were a bit overcooked and dried out. Perhaps it was the time of day, but who knows. Other than that, I would come back and try another dish someday.
