One of our long time, favorite places for delicious food and warm and inviting service. We have been coming here for 2+ decades and a lot of customers are definitely even longer. The owner is so sweet and greets everyone like family, the staff are wonderful and always smiling. Everything on the menu is delicious and we usually get the lunch prefix as this is an ideal way to select from different options and the portions are just right. Can’t wait to come back each time!

Joe should have paid more attention to finishing up service with me. Once he got a few tables that ordered drinks it seemed like he was more interested in taking care of them rather than my table and the table next to me. Ended up waiting about 15 minutes to order dessert and then waited 20 minutes to get my check that I had to ask one of the red coat wait stuff to get. We go here quite often and never had this kind of service.
