I truly enjoyed my experience at this awesome establishment. My only critique would be, we were encouraged to make reservations. However No one was at the door to check that reservation or seat us. This is definitely something so small. We went to the bar and inquired and the beautiful bar staff person told us where to sit. I will definitely return on my next visit💚

Nice, cozy diner with very nice staff. Our server was very cordial, friendly and accommodating. The food was enjoyable. I'd love to return on a week day with maybe less crowd.
