They pride themselves on offering something for everyone. Whether you are vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, omnivorous or all about the bacon, they have plenty of lovingly handcrafted dishes for you to enjoy. They use local, sustainable, organic food that makes you feel good. They take care to know that the land, the animals + the people they work with and source from are treated with respect, and you'll taste that in the food. Because their menu changes with each of our eight seasons, there is always something new + delicious to try.

They are mostly known for their scratch kitchen breakfast and the large outdoor patio with a koi fish pond. The restaurant has a funky vibe with lots of different little rooms. I like the library room. Veg friendly.

The capitol is newly renovated and has free tours. It is a beauty. The building was built by Butler-Ryan Construction and designed by Cass Gilbert and modeled after Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome—the unsupported marble dome is the second largest in the world, after Saint Peter's.
