The food here is great! Call ahead for reservations. They have a very small dining room, and they fill up quickly. They also have seasonal menus, so don’t necessarily trust the one you see on their website. The wait staff told us to check their Facebook page for the most up-to-date information.

Incredible big city dining experience in a small town. Off the Square has farm to table fresh food and hand made from scratch deserts. Big portions and delicious tastes! Did I mention half price bottles of wine on Wednesday?! It doesnt get much better than Off the Square. Thank you to the hospitable staff. Next time I’m in town, I will definitely be back!

My husband and I went in for lunch today. The first thing you notice is the eclectic decor which is beautiful. We started our meal out with two appetizers. The Shrimp Bisque and the Shrimp Bites. Both were fantastic. I could have drank a gallon of the bisque! For our main course we ordered the Quiche and Fish & Chips. Here’s were things go south. The Quiche was burnt and the Fish & Chips flavorless. I was able to dig out the inside of the Quiche which was very good. There was no help for the fish and chips. My husband finished it only because he was starving. We will be back to try their dinner menu. Hopefully they redeem themselves. If not we will not go back.

The food is always great and they always have new dishes. They’re Shrimp Bisque is really good as well as their cold plate. Sometimes the service can have a bit of a wait but they have a small staff that is always friendly. Would recommend to anyone.

Wow. The food is gourmet. The staff is very pleasant. I had smoked salmon for my appetizer, duck for my main (which I’ve never been a duck fan, this was rediculously delicious), and this mouth watering chocolate peanut butter truffle pie. My experience was amazing. The price was very good for the flavors and textures I encountered.

We were visiting from out of town and were so happy to find this restaurant. We wanted something local, and I don’t think we could have done much better. Good variety, fresh and local meat and produce, great service — everything I could ask for. The Nest Eggs were amazing, but I could go and eat just the sweet potato chips (yes, I went for the double-carbs). We’ll go back next time we’re in town.
