Nia our waitress was friendly and moving quickly to serve. The restaurant itself is small, and was very busy. There is a need for a dedicated hostess and more space at entrance.

First time going here & the hidden door wouldn’t open with the jukebox. We got seated pretty quickly but it took about an hour to get a drink here. Ambiance was lovely & noise was just loud enough to not hear other people’s conversations. I would try it again
