The Farmers' Cabinet

Good service. Good food. We got a few assorted cheeses that were very good as well as a few meat options "from the butcher" also excellent. For dinner I had the Venison Shank which was fantastic, the meat fell off the bone. One stand out was the cheese risotto OMG! Ridiculous....that stuff is delicious, just get as a side to taste it if it does not come with your meal...trust me!

Food is good (the pulled pork sandwich is fantastic) and the cocktails are great (Blood Diamond is a corker). If you want a fancy night out, go here but be prepared to pay a little more for the experience.

I don't have many complaints about the food. It was good but the experience was tinged by my annoyance with our server and her lack of courtesy and general knowledge of the food and drink at the restaurant. I was a bit taken aback when my fiance asked the server to tell him a little more about the scallops and instead of explaining the dish beyond the two words that were printed under the item, she pointed to the menu and told him that the description was written right there and then she proceeded to read the two words printed under the item. I was so irked and tempted to tell her that we can READ. Our experience with her was pretty much the same all night -- asked her questions about food/drink recommendations and she really couldn't tell us much and to top it off, she was a bit rude. For the price point of the restaurant you really would and should expect so much better.

One semi-confused kudos I'll throw out is to the bar manager. Our server recommended a pretty nasty tupernoid-esque drink to two of my friends. Once the drinks arrived neither of them could tolerate the taste (I took a sip, it was pretty bad) so we asked her if we could switch out the orders.  She told us that that was something that they don't do but took the drinks to the bar to check. She returned with the original drinks and told us that because my friends had already tasted them they could not change the order. We were all a little annoyed but what could we do. About 5 minutes later the bar manager came to our table and told us that there was a misunderstanding and that he had assumed the girls had finished their drinks (I'm not sure how there was confusion when the server took both full drinks to the bar) but he apologized for the mistake and allowed them to order new drinks. Although there was a little bit of back and forth and some confusion -- we really did appreciate that he did that for us.

So to break it down:

Food: 3.5 (We loved the short rib)
Server: 1
Bar Manager: 4

Won't be going back, that's how annoyed I was.
