Great food and very friendly and attentive service. For a small-town restaurant, the menu has loads of selections and the staff were accommodating of substitutions I wanted to make. We eat here whenever we visit our Saxon!

The steak is phenomenal. I've eaten here at least 7 times this past month. Brussel sprouts need to be a permanent menu item.. they are delicious. The sweet potato hash is honestly addicting...One thing I feel would make this restaurant pop is getting official menus. Other than that everything is always really good. The effort, the service, the ambiance is the best.

In town for the night, and stopped in for a quick dinner. So glad we ended up here. The chicken schwarma sandwich was perhaps the best sandwich I've ever had in my life! Pita was incredibly fresh, and the mix of ingredients was absolute perfection. Too bad I'm not in Alfred very often. I will dream about this sandwich until I get the chance to have another.

Modern but quant atmosphere, they put the bush in rosebush. The best bush lite I’ve ever had! They add rosemary and basil to the bush lite! Who does that? Okay joking.... we had a good time, you should check it out. Obviously a cultured establishment with a sense for the culinary arts.

Very lovely restaurant in quaint town of Alfred. The server was very professional and knowledgeable with great recommendations for our dinner. Three of us each got very different foods and all were cooked to perfection. The chef is obviously extremely talented. I cannot wait to go back there and eat more delicious meals.
