    Don’t sit in a booth. The springs were shot in the cushions. I’m 5 ft 6in and I felt like a child who needed a phone book to sit on. The seats were so low, it made eating uncomfortable. Time to redecorate. Everything else was great!

    The food was as expected, the place was pretty slow and quiet but got busier as we were there. Our server, John was exceptional! Very attentive, had good recommendations, and did a fantastic job taking care of us.

    It’s a fun place. Good food. Service was really good. It’s a little pricier than I thought but all restaurants are anymore.

    We went here after my son to graduation. Had a reservation for 630 but arrived early and they were able to see us. Our waiter was awesome. I really wish I could remember his name. Everyone in our party said the food was great and they would definitely go there again.
