This used to be one of my favorite restaurants, but my family and I won’t be going back—and we can’t recommend it anymore.

The last time my dad went in, the owner was surprisingly rude when my dad asked for a to-go order. We’ve done that before without any issue, but this time the owner shut it down in a way that felt really unnecessary.

I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt—maybe it was just a bad day. But today sealed it for us....read full review

I have been eating here since before 2020. It is an amazing hidden Gem restaurant with a great owner and staff. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very comfortable. I would recommend 10 out of 10 if I could.
