“I was a little uncomfortable from the moment I walked in the door until I left.
My initial encounter with the waitress was abrupt. I wasn't sure whether she was just a matter of fact personality or annoyed by my questions.
I met friends and we ordered. While I was asking her questions about the type of pizza I wanted, she moved on to the next person. I then asked her if I could finish ordering another item, which i did.
We received our food in a reasonable length of time and it was quite good.
Everyone was happy with their sandwich and / or pizza.
My only complaint about the meal was the lack of a good hot sauce on the table. The one available did not look, or smell appetizing. I do like hot sauce on my pizza.So, that was a disappointment.
All in all, I enjoyed the meal for the most part, and I did give the benefit of the doubt to the server.
I would go back. But, I'll be taking sriracha with me.“

“Yesterday, 12/30/2025, we came here to celebrate my partner’s birthday, and the experience was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. We ordered the chicken appetizer along with two burgers, and everything was delicious — flavorful, well-prepared, and clearly made with care. To top it all off, we were surprised with an amazing dessert that made the night feel extra special.
What truly stood out, though, was our server. I regret not getting his name, but he was a gentleman with dark hair and glasses who also worked behind the bar. He was genuinely kind, incredibly attentive, and made us feel so welcomed. His personality shined just as much as the food did, and he went out of his way to make sure my partner’s birthday dinner was memorable. Every request was met with warmth and a smile, and his service truly elevated the entire experience.
Thank you so much for making my partner’s birthday dinner so special. The food was fantastic, the service was exceptional, and we left very happy. We will absolutely be coming back soon — and whoever reads this, please pass along our compliments to him. He truly made our night.“

The atmosphere was calm and quiet when I visited during the afternoon. My server was kind, attentive, and helpful. I left the hidden gem of a restaurant with a strong intent to return.“
