One of our long time, favorite places for delicious food and warm and inviting service. We have been coming here for 2+ decades and a lot of customers are definitely even longer. The owner is so sweet and greets everyone like family, the staff are wonderful and always smiling. Everything on the menu is delicious and we usually get the lunch prefix as this is an ideal way to select from different options and the portions are just right. Can’t wait to come back each time!
