We overall enjoyed the atmosphere and appetizers. The main course of Catfish wasn't amazing but it was ok.( Not pictured) we liked our server but wished they were a little more attentive. The wine list was great. This was our 4th visit here and we like the seasonal menu.

pretty good restaurant, the atmosphere is enjoyable. Strongly recommend the steamed mussel as starter. The pork chop is just so so.
Brandon Brewis
Fantastic experience. Food was excellent as was the service. Everything was good, but the crab claws stood out as being better than most other places outside of Destin, FL. Filet was cooked to a perfect medium-rare. Zero complaints. Will return.

Please do not disregard this review bc of the images!! 🥰😋🥰😋Dining here was phenomenal❣️😋❣️😋❣️ Our appetizers were the Caesar salad, Truffled potato gnocchi, and crispy pork belly. There was so much flavor in each dish, I never put my fork down and forgot to take pics🤣🤣🤣 so I took pics of the EMPTY PLATES to honor what was left- no bite left behind🤣🤣🤣 lolol. As for our entrées we devoured the Brick roasted chicken and Seven vegetable platter. So listen, Rrrricardo and Ford were great servers/ bartenders! Super funny with great stories, each individually personable. They memorized all 3 of our dishes--appetizers and entrées!! Can't wait to come back to try the okra and Patagonian Salmon😋😋

By far the best experience we have ever had! The service was incredible and the food portions were generous but not heavy. The flavors are perfect.

Lovely restaurant and ambiance and tasty food. We were seated in a room which had two larger group tables set up. We were a group of 7 adults. The other table in our secluded room, unfortunately had a group was quite loud. They had one baby with them and the baby did not make any noise. But the adults at the table next to us were super loud. They were so noisy that we couldn't hear each other very well at our own table. Other than that particular situation everything else was great. The cocktails were also delicious.

We had a very nice time at Satterfield’s tonight for my husband and I’d 2nd wedding anniversary. But…. I made a reservation explicitly saying why we were there, but when we were seated the hostess didn’t even look up my reservation so I doubt they knew about my special occasion, so we got seated in the worst area in the hallway where the staff are flying right beside us from the kitchen to the bar. Which was a bit disappointing. We ordered the Fritto Misto as an appetizer and were very happy with it. The sauce was perfect and everything was fried well. My husband ordered an old fashioned and said it was nice. Then our meals came. My husband ordered the crab cake, and I got the filet. His was perfect. The dish made sense, the portion was great, and everything was cooked perfectly. My steak however, was not. The steak was VERY rare. So I sent it back. I got my steak back about 5 or so minutes later, ever so slightly less rare. It was fine so I ate it. The Demi-glaze was far too salty, so it kind of threw off the flavor of everything else. The asparagus really saved it as everything on the plate would’ve drowned in umami flavor. The waitress brought me back some unwrapped silverware since they took my original set with the steak, and the fork I got was dirty, so I had to wait another few minutes to flag someone down for a new one. The manager(I assume)was very polite and made sure everything was right. We were graciously given two deserts of our choice for free, and we chose the Affagatto and the Creme Brûlée. The Affagatto was amazing, but the custard with the Creme brûlée was very warm, almost hot. The sugar topping was perfect though. Overall a bit disappointing for the money, and for the occasion, but the manager was very kind and helped make our night there better. Four stars only because of him

Look no further. This is what you have been missing. It is a great restaurant located minutes from the Summit and Hwy 280. Something for everyone on the menu. The service was great and the food was even better. Our meals were prepared perfectly and seasoned to perfection. Next time you are near 280 plan a visit.
