We were seated at a table on the back porch--so charming and quaint--for a recent Sunday brunch. The menu is varied enough that everyone can easily find something that appeals to their tastes. Service was great---attentive and helpful. All of our selections were prepared as ordered and tasty. Portions were more than ample. We will return!

My wife and I went to Aquavit for the Bar dinner service with the 3 course fix price dinner.We really liked it! Even if the decor was Nordic sparse, it felt homey and nice.

And the food was great as it should be for this price level. We will be back!
