    There were 6 of us there. One of the people was the DD so she just had a pop. She got charged for her refill which I feel is ridiculous. The server did take it off the bill.

    The food was very tasty! Meals were butter chicken, spicy Thai salad, and bacon and tomato soup and a chicken Caesar salad. Everyone enjoyed their lunch. The wait staff were friendly but seemed overextended. It took a while to get the bill but that did give is time to chat after our meal. Sitting in a booth near the door is not ideal from a temperature perspective - I should have asked to be moved. We’ll be back!
