Just went for a quick bike ride on the Ghost town trail — and the place can’t be a quarter mile from the trail, set in downtown Ebensberg. We got the Cobb salad and the house Muffuletta sandwich with fries. It was all great, showed up pretty quick, and I overheard that it’s a family owned small business. What’s not to like? I’ll be back.

All around excellent experience! The scallop dish was my favorite but everything was thoughtfully prepared. The warm bread came with house made honey butter. My first duck dish in years so this really hit the spot. The creme brulee was exactly the rich creamy custard you hope for. Top notch service and atmosphere. The water fall sign in the bar is unique and quite relaxing after a long day. Attention to detail makes this a 5-star experience!

The restaurant is very charming. Interior, music, presentation of food and drinks, —everything is very nice. The place is a family running business and the owners are also very nice people. We really enjoyed conversation with them.

Price wise the restaurant is definitely above the average for the area, but there is no doubt that for what we got it worth every penny we spent (and, probably, even more).

We were a few minutes late to place a diner order, so that we ended up with bar menu, from which we selected lamb meatballs, truffle fries, and a cocktail. I would rate each item 5 out of 5.

Looks like I was so excited with the food that did not make any picture of it, but at least you can enjoy picture of raspberry chocolate cocktail we’ve ordered

What a fabulous locally owned and managed restaurant! She runs the front of house and he runs the back of house. The staff are well versed with the high end menu and are very well trained and extremely polite. The interior has been recently renovated since the pandemic and looks classy and elegant. The food was absolutely decadent! I had P.E.I. Raspberry point oysters, then the surf and turf, which was a lobster tail, 4OZ filet mignon, grilled asparagus, and roasted red potatoes. Everything was cooked perfectly and the clarified (Ghee) butter was incredible with the lobster. The cocktails were also well above average, from Blanton’s Bourbon (extremely rare) to Macon village french Chardonnay. This restaurant is an absolute prize for western Pennsylvania.

Found this place to be one of few actual dine in restaurants in the area. I was worried we wouldn't be seated for dinner but they found us a big enough table against the wall. It is a small restaurant and has a home style feeling. But the food was not the best. My chicken and potato dish sounded delicious but the dried herbs overpowered the entire chicken, the mashed potatoes tasted boxed, and the carrots were bland. My Dad got the Irish stew and he said the carrots and potatoes tasted spongy like they were frozen. My mom got the beet salad and didn't like it because they were pickled beets. The salad should be made with fresh oven roasted beets. My daughters spaghetti was the best part of this entire meal. I would say the prices were way too much for the quality of food.

We were on the road with our pup and stopped here for lunch. It’s a lovely little place with a cute patio on the side. The food was surprisingly delicious and affordable. I had a special which was a caprese grilled cheese with fresh basil and tomatoes. They were dog friendly and brought out a water dish for the pup. 100% recommend!
