    They say you get what you pay for. I certainly got what I paid for: both food and service were excellent. A bit pricey, though!

    We ordered the escargot, beef cheeks and salmon. All were delicious. Lucas took great care of us at the bar. Love Chives! We are return customers and plan to get back ASAP.

    The waiter was not interested in helping navigate the menu for a gluten free restriction. The calamari entree was bland. Service was slow. Would not return.

    Great experience until a couple with WAY too much scent sat next to us. Would have asked to move, but we were just waiting for the bill.

    If you are looking for a great meal with comfortable and attenuve service, you will be hard pressed to find a better place to dine in Door County than Chives. It has become our go-to restaurant for birthdays, anniversaries, and special guests. Great selections with additional specials to choose from, excellent cocktails, mocktails, a very good wine list, and great service, make it one of our favorite places to dine

    Our second time eating here while visiting Door County. Get the feeling it’s an upscale locals place. Service is very upbeat and attentive. Food excellent too. We sat at the community table. Not as “friendly” as hoped. Each couple/group were pretty much into their own conversations or space. If we return to Door County it will be on our list of favorite places to eat.

    Our server, Carter was great and the atmosphere was really nice. We were a bit underwhelmed with our food unfortunately.
