    The food and service was great. The seating is a little close together due to the size of the place. The only negative part was trying to find parking.

    Loved ordering through a QR code, drinks came out almost instantly, food came out hot and fresh and tasted great. We’ll definitely be back! I don’t think it’s as cute inside as the photos make it out to be, but I really did enjoy the food.
