Our Waitress Jessica was fantastic. She was attentive and had a positive energy. The food for the most part was great. Our pizza was raw unfortunately. Our only real complaint was that the serving wear did not seem clean. One fork was dirty and then the pizza server, had a crusted on piece of lettuce underneath which was extremely unpleasant and made everyone at the table not eat anymore. If the cleanliness would get fixed, we would definitely come back.
