Leave a ReviewExcellent food. Excellent service. Large menu. Very accommodating to groups of all sizes. Easy to hear each other talk even with a busy restaurant.
We went to celebrate two birthdays. The staff was very attentive and brought us very large pieces of their fabulous carrot cake for each of our birthdays.
Great atmosphere to go with friends. Steak sandwich was incredible.
