Neighborhood gem! The food here is delicious. Negative reviews are unfounded. I live around the corner and eat here at least 1x a month. The chicken is juicy, the sauces flavorful, and the service friendly.

My dining experience here was simply perfect. They provide welcoming attention in a relaxed setting. The staff has called me by name since my initial visit and stays consistently attentive. Very authentic. I expect to visit this restaurant again.

I found this place by following my nose to good smells. This restaurant works best when shared. This place has earned my continued business. Their menu items all satisfied me. This place could become my regular haunt!
