This weekend’s Father's Day celebration calls for something exceptional from the kitchen.

Introducing our Beer-Brined Berkshire Pork Chop. This bone-in rib chop is expertly prepared, sliced, and served over a silky Yukon gold potato purée with a vibrant summer vegetable succotash, all brought together by a savory whole grain Dijon pan sauce.

Enjoy this feature alongside our curated bourbon flights and elevated dinner specials all weekend long.

Reservations for dinner and our Sunday Brunch (10:30 AM - 3:00 PM) are available via OpenTable. We look forward to celebrating with you.
