Loved the plum salad! Warm bread served right out of the oven! Seared scallops so delicious! My husband enjoyed the short ribs! Chocolate tart with popcorn and icecream! Actually really good combination!! Parking on site. We made reservations on line. Highly recommend!

Rat's Restaurant has a stunning decor inside , everything is very old and with such a chic touch . The food was very good , however the fact that they close between lunch and dinner is a little bummer . There is plenty of parking . Service was ok but it could definitely improve , we felt a bit rushed by our waitress , I wasn't even done with my drink and we already had the check . We don't ask for one because I planned on getting another drink , but I guess she was in a rush .. The grounds around the restaurant are absolutely beautiful , just beware you have to buy tickets online in order to explore . All in all I would love to go back and explore more of the grounds and maybe not feel rushed at the restaurant . .

I stopped by for a bite and drinks with my husband. We sat in the bar area. The space was very cozy. After we were done with our food we sat by the fire place which was nice. I had the winter sangria. It was alright, I felt like it was missing something. We shared the Mezze. It had a nice spread of different things to pick at. I really loved the greek olives. The bartender was really friendly and welcoming. I would return.
