Our first time at the restaurant. It's a small, cosy environment. They try and make all of their offerings with locally produced ingredients. The food was great! I had the filet mignon with a deglaze, broccolini that was seasoned just right, lightly steamed then apparently flash seared. It had a bit of meatiness and was quite savory. It came with mashed potatoes intermixed with sweet potatoes. My wife had the spaghetti with a béchamel sauce with Parmesan corn and scallops. Desert was pot de crème. It was fantastic! Whipped cream with ancho chilies and a nice dark chocolate topped with cocoa nibs. The service was prompt and our waitress explained everything quite well and in depth. I did have a little trouble hearing her, but that may be on me. Be prepared to spend a good amount of money, but well deserved! Sorry, I took no pictures as it seemed uncouth at the time. I would definitely recommend this local business

Farmhaus is literally my favorite restaurant in the globe (actual) It has a small town vibe with a big city feel when it comes to the food. Dress up or keep it casual you are welcome. Always. And the staff (even over the years) become family. I'm here regularly, the menu changes frequently because they have such a massive focus on a local farm to table concept. Dishes may change day of based on what is available. I recommend all of it, but if you've never had a tasting menu this is the spot to do it. It's 6 courses with the option of adding wine pairings and it changes so frequently you don't need to worry about it getting "old". Dillon and Kevin will introduce you to flavors and textures you never expected and it will always exceed your expectations. I've attached some photos of the last standard tasting experience I did (about two weeks ago) but I will admit I'm here about once a month to do the tasting simply because it gives me a chance to try so many items off the menu. That said, I do personally believe the menu is VERY reasonably priced for the standard menu as well. It's a wonderful spot for dinner too, not just the tasting menu. I always have extra portions and I try something new nearly every time I'm there. Pro tip: ALWAYS order the empanadas as an app. Tasting menu or not, you must start with these. Pro tip 2: always make reservations. Pro tip 3: always get dessert. (Pot de creme is a staple in my life). Please note, it's a small restaurant, I'm seeing some reviews speaking to the pace of the establishment. I strongly encourage folks to be present and don't rush through this meal. OH! And always order dessert. It's small, it's local, and when they are busy, keep in mind many parties may be having a 6 course meal. Join in the fun and show this cozy neighborhood hotspot some love. I don't personally consider this a slow dining experience, but I don't rush through meals either. Just some food for thought.

Made a reservation a few weeks in advance for our 5 year wedding anniversary. We were sat on the window wall in the bar area set with white table clothes and candles at each table. Our waitress was prompt to go over the menu and enter our drinks as we waited for the tasting menu to begin. Everything was served at the perfect pace, was made fresh and we left perfectly full.

Can't believe this farm to table place has been open for 14 years...located in a small city neighborhood. Friendly staff. Rotating menu. Great fish dish. Unique shareables. I recommend the tasting menu.

We went all out tonight since we just received our yearly bonuses. This is the first time we went for a 5 course chef designed meals and it did not disappoint. We enjoyed every bite. We also order wine pairing- that is a lot more wine than we are used to . We really enjoy everything and thanks for an unforgettable experience.

This place was amazing! The vibe was chill, great for date night, or just a night out to enjoy some wonderful food and drinks. We did make reservations as it was a Friday night and wasn't sure how busy they normally are. We were seated immediately and our server came over to take our drink orders. I had a glass of wine. We opted for the a la carte menu and started with the braised beef neck empanadas. They were excellent! You can tell they were freshly made and had really good flavors. For my entrée, I had the black Angus prime ribeye. It was prepared to my liking and was served over smashed sweet potatoes and green beans. Quite delicious and filling. Of course, the night was not complete without a dessert. And I ended up getting a semifreddo served with strawberry meringues. To die for! Service was wonderful from the moment we were seated to the time we left. Our server was lovely and we were checked on a few times by the host, he even stopped to chat about their offerings. It was easy to tell they are passionate about what they do here. I obviously cannot sing enough praises about this place and I cannot wait until my next visit here. If you haven't been, go... now!

My wife and I came here for our 6th anniversary. We had gone to Ivanhoe Sno shaved ice which is attached to Bubba's Deli a number of times. We had never realised that Farmhaus was on the same block. It is a relatively quiet area with a handful of bars and restaurants spread across Ivanhoe. Babe's Tavern, Vinnie's Italian Beef, and Pizza a Go Go are just north of Farmhouse. It is actually a nice bock that we will come back to and try out some more restaurants. At Farmhaus we went ahead and did the pre fixe menue and wine pairing. The three courses were a pasta dish with roasted tomatoes (very good), a fish dish (good), and then a steak dish with broccoli and roasted onions (outstanding). The wine pairings were a proseco and then two red wines. The wine with the steak was dryer than we would normally drink but worked very well with the meal. For dessert we got Chocolate Pot De Crème which as its name suggests is a "pot of custard." Think a chocolate creme brulee but without the carmalized sugar crust. The service was attentive and helpful, making a reservation was easy to do online, and the atmosphere was intimate. Since it was our anniversary they also gave us an extra class of proseco. I could not have been happier with the service. Overall it was a great anniversary dinner. The one drawback was that it was relatively expensive. With tip the bill for two ran over $300. A big chunk of that was the wine pairing. In retrospect we should have just done one glass per course and split it between the two of us. There is an a la cart menu which would be more affordable for those not wanting to go all out.
