Helpful, courteous staff. Plenty of beautifully delicious foods... definitely above average selections and recipes... and gorgeous warm chocolate chunk cookies that melt in your mouth.

It's kind of family gathering place in the heart of Norwood. All most all the people knew each other and the staff is friendly too. The inside you have an open bar and the seating next to it. I had a Sea Scallops and an apple cider. My wife had a House Surprise which had shrimp and lobster. The food was good.

We were just here for a private party and it was wonderful. Every bit of food was absolutely delicious, the space was beautiful and even the bathrooms were lovely. I can't say enough kind things about the staff, especially Kim, who were so kind and attentive AND patient with our 3 year old who was a bit overwhelmed with the party we were attending. What a wonderful experience.
