    Great food and ambiance. There are many options on the menu to fit your food mood. Our server was good, just not overly excited about working, it seemed.

    Food is always amazing. Don't know how they can make a kale salad SO delicious, but it's one of my favorite meals out. All their menu items seem to be made from scratch. Love it here!
