Most Disliked
Some guests mention that peak times can lead to a longer wait for a table, especially on Tuesdays at dinner. While the restaurant’s interior is cozy, it can feel a bit cramped during busy periods. A few diners voice concerns about the noise levels when the restaurant is at full capacity, which might detract from the experience for those seeking a quieter meal. Additionally, while many appreciate the speedy service, a handful of patrons have mentioned that their servers can occasionally be a bit rushed, which may lead to missed details in their orders. Lastly, while several vegan options are offered, some diners have expressed a desire for even more plant-based variety on the menu.

We were seated immediately and got our chips and salsa promptly along with our drinks. The service is very friendly. The staff is wonderful. When we ordered our food, it came out pretty quick. There’s a very good flavor.

It was a great dinning experience with great customer service. The food tasted good and the waiter did not let my tea glass go empty, and that is saying a lot. It averaged out to being about $11 a person including the drink. We will be back.
