“What a gem! Stopped in for a late lunch. A few customers but not busy. Had the chicken noodle soup and a BLT wrap. The wrap was good and the soup was superb! Angeline (or was it Angelina?) was a kindred spirit. Great sense of humor and great service.“

“my friend and I went last week for a quick meet up, so we just ordered an appetizer to split. We got the pretzel sticks with cheese sauce and it took almost 20 minutes to get to the table. We met around three in the afternoon so it was between the lunch and dinner crowds, so the restaurant was fairly empty. otherwise our waitress, Jazz, was a gem, and the food was up to par.

Parking: huge parking lot. There’s never an issue finding a place to park.“
