“Taylor Casper has been trying to keep my old heating andac unit running for the last couple of years and has done a great job. However. This year the unit was on its last legs. I had no choice but to replace the heating/account unit. Taylor came back out and gave me a great price for the replacement unit. Thank you Taylor. Hopefully this will last another 15 years .“

Side Curly Fries

“The chicken cutlet is the: Torta Milanesa - it's pretty good but I think the cheese steak is definitely more flavorful, so I preferred that over it. I was going to add some ground mustard sauce in the Torta Milanesa (like a tiny bit to kick up the flavor but not overpower it) but I forgot because it was messy to eat, and I demolished it. It’s more refreshing and lighter, I guess.Cheesesteak had carnitas as the meat and lots of sauce, so it was pretty good. It was filling but wasn't overly heavy feeling probably cause the other flavors it had in it. Definitely was savory. These sandwiches are shareable b/c how big they are.I don’t usually like sweet potato tots but this one was seasoned with some salt so it was balanced, and I actually liked it (I hate when they don't season the sweet potato fries or tots because you can't exactly put salt on it yourself because it’ll just bounce off and not stick as well once it cools)The mozzarella stick was $9 so not sure if I would get it again, but I just wanted some. It was definitely house-made and cheese pulled well and was also fully filled with cheese unlike those frozen ones you get that are 1/3 insides filled. With inflation it might be a good price.“

“Caffé Luna never fails to almost bring their A game every dinner we experience there. The MIL wanted to celebrate her birthday there after we had the FIL's birthday dinner in January. She was as happy this time as the last! The only drawback this visit was our server not hearing (or forgetting to write down or failing to put in) our order of a Mozzarella Fresca and an Insalata del Pastore. We were a little thrown when the main courses came out quickly without the antipasti and insalata we were fairly certain we ordered. We were not charged for it, so we assume the server just dropped the ball. All the dishes that did come out, came out perfectly and were as delicious as every other time we have been. Consistency is a wonderful thing!“

“We decided to pop in Good Day Good Night for an after dinner drink. There were 5 of us. We each ordered 1 drink and one person ordered dessert. Her coffee finally arrived, after she finished her dessert. The rest of us had to wait over 30min for our drink. I ordered a White Russian. It was so iced down, the ice had melted and the drink just watery whatever. Our server just acted like we were bothering him, each time we asked about the status of our drink order. My drink was the only mixed drink. The others were a shot of bourbon, and 3 decafs (the coffee was already made) Next time we want to stop somewhere for an after dinner drink, it won't be here.“
