In addition to the ambiance, the Green.House boasts fresh local produce and a rotating menu filled with flavorful, seasonal fare.

Their wine and dessert menu are no exception to this quality. The wine list offers boutique and local wines (available by the glass or bottle) and their desserts are exquisite.

I personally recommend the ginger-lavender crème brulee. Delightful.
