    We were a party of 5 and everyone enjoyed their meal. I had the Kaprow Gai Sub which had the perfect amount of spice. It paired well with the Peach Silouette sour. Yum!

    Enjoyed a wonderful holiday dinner last week. The service is always friendly and has a neighborhood vibe. The food is always tasty as well. It is quiet enough there so that we were able to have a great catch-up conversation with relatives that we had not seen in a few months. All in all, a great neighborhood spot that we will come back to!
