You feel pampered from the moment you step in the door. Very creative menu. A hidden gem!
We had the jalapeño poppers, chicken wings, spicy shrimp linguine, crème brûlée. All of which was an absolute 10 out of 10. Everything made from scratch and you can see the pride taken when your food arrives. A little pricey, but you will not be disappointed. You must make reservations
