Exploring our connection to food.
We started with an amazing property, an idea and our shared passion. The end result is amazing food, outstanding cocktails and service that is unapologetically our own.
Why Us? Why Here? Why Now?
Molly Goldsworthy
Managing Partner & Sister
Molly is the muscle and the face of this stunning establishment. Molly started working at a young age in the restaurant industry, inspiring her younger sister to work beside her for years before joining the military. After serving years in the US Marine Corps stationed around the world, Molly moved her family back to Boulder Junction to be a part of her sister and brother-in-law’s business and passion. Molly enjoys being a part of the community with her family and where she and Liz have grown to love.
Britt Unkefer
Founder, Owner, Chef
Britt is the brains of the operation. With over 40 years of experience working in restaurants as a chef and collaborated with well-known culinary experts around the world, he brings it all back to Boulder Junction, where he vacationed as a family growing up. After owning and operating seven restaurants of his own in Door County, Britt and his family are happy to come to Boulder Junction to make a historic establishment into something of their own.
Liz Unkefer
Partner, Wife, & Sister
Liz is the imaginator and the behind-the-scenes creator. Liz started working in restaurants with her brother and sister at a young age that sparked her interest in the industry. After working and graduating from college in New York City and overseeing construction projects throughout Manhattan, Liz found herself still wanting to be in the hospitality industry. She knew it was meant to be when she met Britt working in his restaurant. Liz always had supporting family and friends that inspired her restaurant career, especially Molly!
Our Next Generation
The reason we do it all, Our Kids!
When you come in, you might find our kids showing you to your seat, cleaning your table, and washing dishes in the back. Our bigger kids might be behind the line in the kitchen or working behind the scenes giving all their moral support while expanding their own culinary dreams. Don’t be surprised if you see “Grandma” helping out either. We are making a beautiful legacy for them to be proud of and carry on if they so choose.
As you come in to see our new look, new menu, and feel a new vibe, you will notice the changes are greatly influenced by our family and dearest friends that have continued to support us. There will be loving stories in the decor and vibe that are worth asking about, as well as enjoying the new food and drink menu with an everlasting riverside view that will never change.
Britt, Liz, and Molly explored areas around the world before coming back to a place they all called home earlier in life. Bringing a shared passion back to the Northwoods was unexpected but serendipitous as the beautiful property became the undeniable catalyst for realizing a family legacy. After two years, it was time to make it our own, creating a memorable and enjoyable concept to share. While many may miss what it was, more show excitement and support of the changes with us. We look forward to welcoming those that embrace the new changes with us as our legacy only has a taste for positivity.
