“What an incredible dining experience! We brought our teenage son and let him completely pick our menu. He chose several dishes he had never tasted before, and we were honestly blown away. He critiqued every single food item and was absolutely floored by how delicious everything was. Every bite was phenomenal! The service was just as impressive — friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. It’s not often you find a place that leaves the whole family talking about the food afterward. We will definitely be back!“

There are pool tables but no one was there using them when we were there. That drive through sure was busy though! Oh, and don't mess with the raccoons living out of the dumpster out back---they are favored regulars!“

“I rented out the large uncovered patio area on Saturday for my husband’s fortieth birthday! We had the BEST time! Sara was SO helpful with helping me decide which area was best for us to rent. She was honest & realistic, which made the decisions easy for me! We had approximately 40-45 people and there was so much extra room! We rented from 5-9 and it was perfect, there was lots of parking when we arrived. The place was crowded but not overly/ towards 9 o’clock it got very crowded but SUCH a fun vibe! Even with the crowd the bartenders were quick with drinks and the kitchen was quick with food! Overall… 10/10 recommend. 😉 we will be back!!!!“

The crepes, baked goods, gelato and beverages are all wonderful with iced drinks being refreshing and hot drinks usually being at the perfect temperature to begin drinking immediately. Further, the prosciutto crepe makes for an awesome breakfast. I'll miss this cafe.“

We enjoyed sitting outside in the beautiful weather while sipping cocktails (1942 Old Fashioned, Conundrum and Scout’s Honor red blends), sharing the Baked Brie appetizer, Grilled Chicken Breast entrée, and finishing with the Molten Chocolate Cake. Everything was delicious, beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Servers were perfect. You can tell they aren’t trained though and have to do what they only know on the spot. Food tasted like a hungry man meal. (STRAIGHT OUT OF A MICROWAVE) . Watched the owner give out shots while saying “if you are having a good time leave a review right now” so watch out for the bribery. I give 2 stars for the effort of the servers . 1 star for the owner.“

“Our server, Jolie, was helpful friendly and awesome! Thanks for recommending the caramelized pizza with the salad! Food was terrific (Salmon on Peso Pasta salad, grilled perfectly medium, and the Muffaletta with perfectly melted provolone and fries). Food was on the table in under 10 minutes. Will definitely be back for more! Dining room was impeccably clean. Wheelchair accessible, dedicated pickup parking, well apportioned bar, fair prices, and they have trivia and bar height tables as well as booths. Sorry I didnt take pics! Great music selection that appealed to both my mom and myself.

Edit: Leftovers were an entire meal for both of us! Great experience!“
