    Normally the food is hot a fresh. I got the fish and chips. Fish was amazing but the chips were cold and not even warm. It might have been an off night. Waitress was amazing. I would go back still

    Our server, Celicia, was excellent (and we appreciated her wry sense of humor!). Everything we had was fabulous (particularly the turkey Reuben!). We will be back!

    Our server was very attentive with refills and and allowing us to linger a little longer than usual as no one was waiting / the restaurant was not very busy.
