The food was fantastic with kind folks and a nice atmosphere. We got the autumn special chicken. It was packed with flavor. I appreciated that they allowed us a small sample of a couple wines to decide on, too.

We always love going to Out of the Woods. There are few restaurants these days that offer food of this caliber. Everything is so fresh and tasty! We had the duck fat biscuits to start and the Korean chicken wings. Both were excellent. For our main courses we had the salmon, steak, and duck. All were cooked to perfection in delicious sauces and glazes. The desserts were also excellent! The staff is always so friendly and they remember my husband and I each time come in to dine there. Travis, the owner, is an excellent front of the house greeter, always makes us feel welcome. Highly recommend!!!

    Great spot for food and drinks. The servers were dressed up for Halloween (as were we) and a good time was had by all. Tables were a little close together and it was a busy night, so the noise levels were a little high. We stayed long enough for the crowd to thin out, around 10pm. Great date night location.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants. The lobster mashed potatoes might be the most delicious menu item, anywhere. The bonus for our group was our server, Melissa. The only negative is the booths need to be reupholstered so the height is correct for sitting at the table. Food never disappoints.

    The food was absolutely delicious. Well seasoned, perfectly cooked, with flavors that melded beautifully together. The atmosphere is a very cozy, neighborhood feeling. The staff were friendly, and attentive - even in a very busy restaurant.
