Wonderful owners and staff. Nothing personal, but some feedback:

Takeout order + dine in previously + downtown event visit.

- order speed was great.

- Spinach and artichoke dip is good, but I think portion could be larger for the amount of chips given.

- the banana pudding has very good texture, the flavor is pretty good, but I think it can be a bit cloying/sweet.

- the dinner items...

Oh, my goodness! It was delicious. Crunchy coating on Jager schnitzel. Gravy was superb, next time I will take two.. Service outstanding. Spacious interior a good place when it's warm outside.

The funnel cake fries were amazing but the chips and queso were not very good. I think we had a different idea as to what that would entail (the queso). But the funnel cake fries were great. Wish they had a larger option for it! Perfectly cooked and a beautiful crunch.
