    Was waiting for Chef Raymond and his family to open up there new endeavor and was very pleased to find new recipes and food that was made by hand, and with PASSION! If you stop in be sure to try out the pancakes, or corn beef hash as they were both very tasty! The place is on the smaller side with about 30 seats inside and about 10 to 15 outside, but what it lacks in size in makes up for in service as they are friendly, and attentive. Also if they have them on the day that you go, get a pack of brownies, you'll thank me later.

    Wild Rosemary was warm and wonderful. The food was fantastic and fellowship with the table introduces a sense of community. Breaking bread with your neighbor from the down the street while sipping wine warms your heart. We had so much fun sharing laughs and soaking up red sauce with homemade bread. If you don’t make this your next stop, you’re making a mistake.
