    What an excellent dinner experience! I will be recommending Ethel’s Fancy to all my friends. The food is fresh and creative and service is excellent. The exterior of the restaurant is simple and a bit uninteresting but when you get inside, there is a wonderful vibe- a warm and inviting energy. Parking is easy and reservations are a must.
