Vibe: Rough around the edges

Despite the heavenly food, the restaurant’s ambiance lags behind, leaving much to be desired. The older interiors and unpleasant odor make it a difficult sell. Though warm and inviting, the size might not be a match for everyone's preference. And with limited parking and a sketchy lot, even the most adventurous might be deterred.

  • Okay For Dates

    Ambiance warm and inviting, but too small for some preferences.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Older, unpleasant odor; very dated and not clean at first appearance.

Perks: Superior service lifts experience

Bringing some redemption to the establishment is the service, a beacon of positivity amidst the otherwise challenging vibe. The staff is friendly and consistently attentive, uplifting the customer experience. Even the picky kids approve, indicating a thoughtful touch to the child-friendly options.

  • Great Service

    Friendly, attentive service consistently uplifting customer experience.

  • Bad For Groups

    Small space, inconvenient for groups, needs reservations for large parties.
