It was amazing service from when we walked in until we left. Their Chipino was the best we have ever had. The butter leaf salad was enough for two. You gotta have their donuts before you leave. Their waiters were so accommodating in every way. We will remember this place and come back for sure.

Olive and Hay were simply delicious 😋 They had a great Italian salad to share for 2. The Margherita Pizza was very good, along with the New York Steak cooked to perfection 👌. The service was very attentive, and the manager came by and checked on us a few times.
