in summer, AC is nice as its very hot/humid in summer. The upstairs dining area was very small, most tables were small breakfast tables. the area was small and in fact overly bright, not like the regular Columbia restaurants. on ground floor level, there was much space but was a patio outside. I recommend converting part of the downstairs with AC
After not having anyone greet us at our table, my son in law asked for a manager. Scott, the manager provided us with excellent service and made up for any errors. Still not sure why we weren't greeted or anyone serve us, but it ended up being a good experience. Kudos to Scott.
Quiet place when nobody is around. Food was great. Our server Ayanna was excellent. Engaged in conversation while still being efficient. She made sure it was a pleasant dining experience for my wife and I. I recommend!
