Had the most wonderful meal! We did the 7 course & the wine pairing with it. Probably one of the most worthwhile and exciting wine pairings we’ve experienced! Every detail was fantastic, all the staff were exceptional, knowledgeable, and above & beyond kind. The food was delicious and so thoughtfully conceptualized. We will definitely be back!

What a special night out for our family. We were so looking forward to this dinner and it did not disappoint. We were greeted with hot wash clothes (I think every Michigan restaurant should immediately implement in the winter) and a warm vegetal broth tea. This quickly made us feel comfortable and cozy after the briskly cold walk over. Standouts in our meals included the turnip soup (I know, right?), the kale salad, all of the mains, and apple maple tart. Excellent service. The pacing was a good lesson in patience for our teen son but allowed the food to settle. We will be back! A very special night we won't forget.

What a gem! This restaurant was recommended as the best little, quiet place for dinner in tc and wow! so true. The menu is varied but focused. Service is attentive but not intrusive. The food quality is top notch. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes 5 Course Tasting Menu

My wife and I came here for her birthday, after returning from a winter in Spain. Prior to returning to TC, we enjoyed an exceptional meal at a Michelin starred restaurant in Valencia. I knew that I could not expect anything in TC to compare, but I had at least hoped it would be decent. Each course that arrived was incredibly underwhelming. It is not as if the food was bad, it was just boring and not at all worth what they are charging. To make things worse, the wine pairing consisted of a selection that did not pair well (perhaps it was the fault of the boring food) and the pour was similar to what you would get at a grocery store tasting. Additionally, they pack this place in so densely that you should expect to be rubbing elbows with people in the table next to you. Finally, the staff is really unfriendly. It is always so sad to see people in TC trying to act like pretentious city people, but even more depressing when they have nothing to base it upon. To summarize, the service is poor, the food is mediocre at best, the wine pours are stingy, and the environment is just awful. For the price, you are better off driving to Grand Rapids for a better meal at a fraction of the price. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1
