Set against the serene backdrop of Pennsylvania’s Poconos, this 5,000-square-foot restaurant reimagines two existing buildings as a singular, striking destination. A sculptural octagonal tower elegantly bridges the one-story and two-story structures, creating a seamless dialogue between old and new.
The main one-story dining hall is fully revitalized with expansive windows, refined finishes, a state-of-the-art kitchen, a sleek bar, and thoughtfully updated bathrooms—an inviting blend of comfort and sophistication. The adjoining two-story building, once residential, now houses elevated dining experiences across both floors, with a reception area and lounge connecting the spaces in a graceful, fluid transition.
Guests enter from the main road or via a rear parking lot, greeted by a cohesive architectural palette that unites the historic structures and new addition through matching cladding and harmonious proportions. The result is a restaurant that is both visually compelling and functionally exceptional—a contemporary statement of design that elevates every dining experience.
