    My girlfriend and I recently enjoyed a wonderful dinner that combined bold flavors with creative touches, all enhanced by exceptional service from our attentive and friendly server. I had the braised curry lamb, which was tender, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The truffle mac and cheese on the side was rich and indulgent, a comfort food classic elevated to the next level. My girlfriend chose the pork chop, beautifully cooked and paired with sweet, juicy peaches and creamy mashed Yukon gold potatoes—a standout dish. To finish, we shared warm, fluffy donuts that were just the right amount of sweet, providing a perfect end to the meal. The delicious food and attentive service made for an unforgettable dining experience!

    Never had a bad meal or drink here. Enjoyed brunch today for my mom’s birthday. Shawn was an excellent server, keeping everyone from my Dad to my 6 yr old daughter happy :) Breakfast tacos, crab cake benedict, crème brûlée French toast, and kids brunch all tasty. Their seasonal mimosa was perfect and the espresso martini could have been dessert all on its own. Can’t wait to come back.
