"We ended up having dinner here very last minute, as we got back from our afternoon activities later than planned and didn 't realize how late it was. We tried a few places closer to where we were staying, but many were either closed for the season, closed for the evening or not taking any more guests due to the later time. My wife called and was told if we could be there soon that we would be able to have dinner. I certainly wasn 't expecting much, but the restaurant was very clean and definitely a bit more upscale, than anywhere else we 've eaten on our trip. We got a beautiful corner table and never felt rushed the entire time we were there, even though they were obviously finishing up for the evening. Our Server was very professional and went through the menu with us and made a few recommendations as well. For starters, we had a garden vegetable salad, which was rally nice much better than I expected after eating around the area for the last week. We also had their interpretation of Prosciutto Melon, which was bette than any version I 've had before, including the times I 've had it in Italy. This version was served with fresh burrata cheese and was simply amazing. For entrées, one of my daughters had the vegetarian bucatini, which was awesome. I had the fish and chips, which was better than any I 've had in quite a long time. My wife and one of my other daughters had the pork chop, which they both loved, and my youngest had a cheeseburger, which was really great as well. The presentation on everything was really great, down to the smallest details. For desserts, we had a homemade black raspberry sorbet that was really refreshing, but the best dessert was the chocolate cake, served with a creamy homemade caramel ice cream. When my wife commented on how good the cake was, our Server told us that her aunt owns a local bakery and makes the cakes for the Restaurant, which definitely makes sense I bake a lot where I work back home, but getting a cake this moist layered as evenly as theirs isn 't something you can achieve in most Restaurant Kitchens. As a professional chef of over twenty years, I was blown away, not only by the service and food, but also by how welcoming the entire staff was. From the moment we walked in to the second we left, everyone we interacted with was very friendly and extremely welcoming. Speaking from experience, I can tell you that late tables at the end of the night certainly aren 't something that we look forward to in the Kitchen. Not once during my meal did any of us feel rushed in any way. Next time we 're back in Door County, we definitely plan on visiting this gem several times. I 'd definitely recommend it to anyone who appreciates fine locally sourced cuisine. I would give six stars if I could!"
