“by the time the appetizers arrived I had a beard and a cane and had gone completely deaf due to how loud the music was. I’m pretty sure the waitress read my lips because there is quite literally no way she would have heard me over the music.
this place was so loud that I could talk behind someone’s back while right in front of them.
when my food arrived, I was seeing stars. and I mean that literally. It was dark when my food arrived.
all in all, I’ll probably come back to eat here again. even if I have to eat lunch beforehand.
8/10, I loved it here. please turn the music down.

Parking: Parking was hectic. everyone inside was dead so their cars never moved.

Wheelchair accessibility: by the time I got out of my chair, I found out that my body was so weak that I couldn’t move my legs anymore!
the hospital had to pick me up because the rest of my family was too weak and disoriented to even notice that my blood had practically run still!“

The soup was fantastic, and although i wish the sandwich had one more piece of fish on it, it was very good also. Looking forward to my next visit.“
