    My first time here. Lovely place food was mostly good but I wouldn’t say amazing. Service was not what we’re used to although she was very professional and polite just not on top of needs. There seemed to be plenty of help but they were all over the place we had to ask for things that we needed. The best items were Cesar salad, burger and the chicken pot pie, sweet potato fries. About half the items were ok and the other half really good. So mixed. We ordered about five apps to share so we could try things we were so executes about the menu and options. Ambiance lovely. Not sure if I’d go back or not.

    Food was delicious, as expected, since this was not our first visit. What makes the experience special is having Edna as our server. You’ll never see her without a smile and she surreptitiously checks on us a few times during the evening, just to ensure that we have everything we need for an enjoyable dinner.

    We came for our anniversary and the food was delicious. Service was great. The noise level was way too loud. We couldn't hear ourselves speak because there was a large group of women at a table that was so loud.
