I went there to meet a friend and was surprised to see that the karaoke DJ was a friend of mine! It was fun! The only complaint that I have is that the bartenders weren't very personable. The woman that served me literally didn't say a word to me unless I asked her something that she had to answer, BUT I think that she was new and training.. I don't think that you have to be trained to ask someone how they're doing and what they would like to drink..
Honestly...

This place is so nice to grab a bite. Food was delicious, fresh, and truly homemade down to the chips. I would 100% comeback. The staff was also the kindest.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair bound at the moment and it was super easy to get to the patio
