From the minute you walk in, you can see the passion from everyone there to make sure your experience is unique and catered to you. My husband and I each had the 5 course tasting and I would highly recommend. The old fashion was amazing as well.

We spent a few days in flagstaff and tried the best restaurants downtown. Without any doubt this one is far ahead of the others. My fat fingers made a reservation for the day after ?but they managed to get us in some time after. Mean while we had a cocktail next door, same owners, very good!I had some duck, very well cooked, delicious. Great ambience, everyone was happy and enjoyed a great meal. I highly recommend.

Every meal here is a lovely and relaxing experience. They really know how to nail the cook on any protein which I can't say the same for other similarly priced establishments in town. The bartenders are also excellent and custom create anything to your taste.

02/15/2024Emily at the bar cultivates a welcoming and professional atmosphere with a bit of tasteful humor and conversation. I had the best duck breast of my life. Compliments to the chef and establishment for the best dinner I've had on a night out with my partner.

Wonderful experience all around. We sat at the bar. Our server/bartender, Emily, was funny, down to earth, and very knowledgeable. She enthusiastically answered all of our questions about the craft cocktails. Our Mussels and Filet Mignon were delicious, but the service took it to the next level.

From the impeccable service, to the wonderful food, to the luxurious atmosphere, this restaurant was maybe one of the finest dining experiences I have had. Vivian was a spectacular server who anticipated every need, the portion sizes were ideal for myself and my husband, and the demi-glaze on the perfectly cooked steak was to die for. I cannot recommend this place enough if you are looking for a high-end restaurant.

Amazing food and service! The environment is so cozy and friendly. This is the first time visiting flagstaff with my wonderful boyfriend and we decided to check this place out, I'm glad to say that we did! Vivian was our server and she was really sweet and friendly and would check often on us to see if everything was okay! She is definitely the best server I've had so far here in flagstaff(: and even Racheal the manager would as well! They were all kind including the host and his warm welcome. The food was amazing and it's safe to say that I am a picky eater for sure but honestly props the chef and everyone in the kitchen who worked on our plates because it came out really delicious! Definitely recommend and definitely coming back my next trip(:

WOW!! Wow, wow, wow. How have I not eaten here before on my trips up to flag?! Our server went by G, and he had great recommendations from drink, to apps, main course, and complementary wine. We started with the roasted garlic and balsamic crostini, then moved to the muscles, followed by the pork belly in crispy rice, and finished the evening with the crispy duck. My favorites were the muscles (we were also offered extra bed to soak up the goodness of that white wine butter sauce), the pork, and the garlic crostini. The duck was also delicious but by the time it arrived I was so full so I don't feel like my appetite did it justice. Will be back. Will eat here every time!

There were a few hiccups on the food front (it happens). But they found their stride on course three onwards and hit it out of the park from there.The service by the whole team from door to server was very good and attentive, without being overly. The manager was very kind and handled a bump in the experience with professionalism and grace.Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a nice intimate restaurant in Flagstaff.

We arrived about 10 minutes before our reservation so they asked us to go next door and wait. There wasn't any seating so we had to stand outside in the cold for 15 minutes and look at our empty table from the window while they took their time to put plates and forks on the table.Ordered the duck and asked specifically for it not to be red on the inside. It came out and it was completely rare. It took an additional 15-20 minutes for them to bring out the dish and they didn't even offer a discount for the misahap and we spent about $950.00on the overall meal.The filet wasn't very tasty. Their lobster was very tiny and put over a soggy slice of bread.Their mussels were amazing and the highlight of the meal for me.

Wow wow wow! One of the best meals we’ve ever had (and we’re from NYC!). Even a simple salad was fantastic. The mussels in particular were outstanding. We loved it so much we tried going again the next day but we couldn’t get a reservation. Highly recommend. Worth the trip to flagstaff alone!
