Says Eric about The Annex Kitchen: "You will instantly be impressed with the energetic vibe, big flame wood burning grill, and an impressive pizza oven just inside the reception area.

The large sliced baked in-house dark crusted sourdough drizzled with butter and seasoning, and then finished on the grill, was well worth the carb overload we had already dove into mouths first..."
