This was such an exceptional evening. It was my wife's Birthday and we were so impressed with the service, food,ambience, company. It sure didn't hurt that Val our waitress is The daughter of Mario, her boss and owner of the joint. Mario made our cold / hot strawberry banana dessert at our table and sang Happy Birthday..... what an awesome experience.....
