Only ding on the service was that following shift change, we had trouble getting our check. Only ding on the "chowda" was it could have been a little warmer. Otherwise, this remains a great spot for a good meal!

From the moment you walk in the door, it’s as if you stepped back in time. The pink Christmas theme going throughout was adorable. Everyone was friendly and the food was phenomenal. My party especially liked the lasagna, that’s only served on Sundays. The one and only downfall is their house Cabernet is not good. That is the only one you can buy by the glass so you have to buy a bottle. But no problem they wrap it up for you to take home. I cannot wait to go back.

Fabulous food and great staff. First time we have eaten here and we will return soon. It ia a small place which creates high energy and a lot of noise, but very well received unless you are looking for an intimate, romantic dining experience.
