Service was great, the atmosphere was nice and we had a good time. The food was ok not terrible. Everyone liked the food. My lasagna noodles were pretty hard. All in all though a good time.

The restaurant was fabulous. It wasn't as crowded as it was, the last time we went there. The service was a little sketchy. They took good care of us. We didn't want for anything. It was better the last time we were there. They sang Happy Birthday to Bob. That was very nice of them. I had a very nice time!

Tanner was my server and he was excellent, great service, friendly, and helpful!

I ordered the managers special with half mizithera half mushroom sauce… chefs kiss! I also enjoyed the house salad with creamy pesto and the sourdough bread with garlic butter is amazing!!!
