Visited on a Tuesday evening. Great food and good service. Very clean and a really nice venue. Nice selection of VT craft beers. Recommend changing the music. Felt like the music was more for the staff than customers. Patron median age was probably 45+. Not sure if anyone was interested in listening to Hip Hop. We would have most likely stayed for a few after dinner drinks but decided to move on. Overall good experience. We'd recommend to our friends. (Just change the music).

Very popular place amongst the locals. The mussels… one of the best I have ever had in the states. The wood fired cooking techniques let the natural ingredient shine. You can taste the freshness of the food. The restaurant also uses local ingredients to make the food. It has the organic flavor that restaurants in the big city cannot offer.

Good ambience and very good food! Had to do a takeout as we had our dog with us and this place doesn't allow dogs unless they're service animals - might have been a different scenario if the outdoor dining was open; however, we were there in April, so the outdoor dining was not open yet. They have a full service bar and take outs need to be done from there only. The bar has the same food menu as the restaurant. Overall, a good place with good food - portion size was good as well. We had classic burger and Banh Mi sandwich - both were great! Will definitely come back when we're in Stowe again!

Nice atmosphere, we were dining outdoors. The food was good. We ordered cheeseburger for a kid, mussels (in red spicy sauce and 1/2 rack of ribs with meshed potatoes.

Stopped at this place for a quick lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered the Pinnacle pizza and Quinoa salad. The pizza was simple and decent but salad surprised me. It was really good.
