    I think as a concept I propose, every restaurant should mention quantity along with price in the menu. Such as $20 and 16Oz, like we get on every other purchase

    The menu was very impressive with unique dishes. The food was very tasty and refreshing and all of our family enjoyed the dinner. Great ambiance, we liked the large booth that accommodated five of us and roomy enough for tall men and women.

    It’s a basic restaurant with cheap deco. Def not a high end restaurant. They need a serious spell check.
