Great selection of drinks. Food was great. service was fantastic. And for it being a Friday night, we called ahead and we're seated immediately. Could not have asked for a better experience.

We had a hamburger and salmon with sticky rice. Both delicious. Great service . Our server took our order electronically so it went directly to the kitchen. We paid electronically at our table!
December 2024
I had the chicken wings and a salad. The wings were tough, bloody, and difficult to eat. I’m not sure why the server spoke with a southern drawl but it was weird. The beer was fine.
