    Was very disappointed by my first visit here ordered the salmon burger, which was like a brick hard patty not very fresh not very tasteful on a plate. French fries were served with it, which were OK. Calamari order was overcooked waitress forgot one of our drinks restaurant was empty on a Monday night early, not sure what was going on in the kitchen. Caesar salad was fair. Very disappointing after family suggested it as one of their favorites underwhelming at best.

    The food was good, the restaurant was nice inside, & the waitress was very kind. The only major issue we had was that there were big flies that were flying everywhere where we were sitted. We ended up killing 4 of them w/ our cotton napkins that were on the table. The door was wide open & they eventually closed it, but maybe the restaurant should be cautious of having the door open with customers inside so they aren't swatting aways flies their entire time there. There were little gnats, too. Also, another piece of advice, when the managers are walking by the tables maybe they should speak & say atleast "hello" to the customers, especially if they make eye contact w/ them. It was very odd that one manager kept walking pass our table & looking me right in the face like a deer in headlights but never once said hello or smiled. There was another one rearranging some tables & chairs but didn't say hi to us or the other customers at the tables near us. I just found it odd being that many restaurants have managers who will not only say hi if they're walking by but they'll even ask you how's the food, etc.

    We stopped in for brunch. The intent was to get a light meal. I had a omelette and my wife had the watermelon and asparagus salad. Both meals were good. The dessert for two, a chocolate and cotton candy thing was very sweet. Overall I would stop again.

    This was a wonderful place to eat and celebrate my fiancé’s birthday! The staff was very personal and made our night extremely memorable. The food was delicious from the appetizers to the entrees and even the dessert! We are definitely coming back and will enjoy this local restaurant more often!
