I cannot remember if I left a review already, but July 2026 we ordered for catering although we had not actually been to the restaurant or tried the food. Word of mouth alone led me to order! And I was NOT disappointed. Amazing food 😋 😍 and service.
Great people, great food!!

Everything was SO good. Had five homemade sauces and they were each excellent—a house sauce, an apple butter one, something with pineapple, a strawberry jalapeño one, and one called “blue heat”...read full review
