    We had the cheesy spinach dip with warm tortillas for the appetizer. It was very good and half price during happy hour. I had the juicy Lucy burger for $7 during happy hour. The burger very good; two juicy patties, cheese, carmelized onions on a toasted sesame bun. He got the Cuban minus the pickles. It was good and a very large serving. Service was attentive.

    I was here with my 3 boys for lax tournament and came here for dinner. Was delicious, fast, courteous, and affordable. I recommended it to our fellow parents the next day for next year’s tournament

    Met family members in town to visit and had a terrific meal at ver great conversation. From sitting down to eating to checking out, the entire experience felt wonderful. Our wait staff member was great - not pushy or overly attentive, just the right amount of presence that allowed us to eat and catch up! Thanks for a wonderful dinner!

    I made a reservation for Mother's Day. Even though I was running late tending to other responsibilities and couldn't make it to the actual reservation time on time, my date showed up early and he was able to be seated. That is highly appreciative because it took the pressure off of me rushing to get there since I was coming from Fairfield Township. The ambiance was nice and relaxed. The service was absolutely wonderful as well as the food. I have never been there before, but I will definitely make it a point to go there again. Thank you so much for everything as well as making my Mother's Day dinner truly memorable!

    Excellent service and good! We were still able to enjoy conversation and not feel “hovered over”. Our server was very nice, attentive and helpful with dinner suggestions.
