First time eating here was yesterday, the service was absolutely terrible. Which should have been a given since we were the ONLY ones there. Besides a table of 4 people came right before we left. They “forgot “ our drinks MULTIPLE times, was out of literally everything we asked for on the appetizer menu, and the drink menu. Not to mention they messed up our tickets after coming to the table and writing down everything that each couple had. (4 tickets) only 8 people and everyone got a burger the only difference was the drinks. You mess up change from $100 bill and can’t even count the money correctly, and then charged one of our debit cards 2 times.. Not to mention the burgers weren’t even cooked all the way. We waited over an hour for food. I’m not sure how this place is even still open. We will never be back.

Hands down this place is nothing short of being just AMAZING. Beautiful atmosphere, exceptional service, good value for the price and delicious food. The owner was top notch and on her A GAME. She introduced herself and continued to check on us, making suggestions on food to order and most friendly. It's very obvious that she prides herself in how her business looks and how it's ran. Both she (Mandy- owner) and the waitress (Chelsea) were phenomenal. 10/10 I highly recommend. Food was so good and seasoned to perfection that we didn't have to use the salt n pepper shaker. They have an amazing selection of wines and top shelf alcohol (although I was at work and couldn't try any- but will be back) SUPER CLEAN ESTABLISHMENT. However this hidden gem is only open for lunch through the week and on FRIDAY AND SATURDAY for dinner. Therefore planning ahead of the trip there is ideal. Personal thanks to Mandy for running such an amazing restaurant. Tell your cooks in the back that they ARE THE BEST!! y'all got a regular customer here baby. Thanks for making my lunch memorable. See ya soon.

I got hair not once but twice in my food. I ordered out with my boyfriend and he found two hairs in his pasta. I got a cheesecake and found one in my cheesecake. How do you get hair in a cheesecake???

It's been a long while since I've been here. Made a reservation for a large group. Wait staff were very good. Food was good. Took us a while to get everyone there, but as soon as someone sat at our table, the wait staff were asking for drink orders. We ordered from menu rather than doing the daily special and it took a few extra minutes to get the food. My only complaint was were just inside the door, so everyone walked in past us. I did find it odd in such an upscale place, the wait staff was dressed down, like way down. One of our waitresses had on a oversized hoodie and jeans, hair pulled back with no make up like she just rolled out of bed, and the waiter was in a tee shirt, pair of cargo shorts, and sandels. Took away from the ambience of an upscale eatery. Some of my work guests were new to the restaurant and commented on it. I will return for personal lunches or dinner though.
