Food was good. The service too but we saw our waiter handling the carpet at the entrance with his bare hands and couldn't tell if he washed them afterwards. That made us a little insecure about the service.

Rib burger and calamari were wonderful, fries were also especially good, the kind that have the extra crunch to them with the flaky bits on the outside. Wouldn’t hesitate to return again

Love this place. Consistently good food and the service is always friendly and quick. Off the main strip so kind of hidden a block away from the Gourmet Ghetto but worth the detour.
