Members of our garden club met here for lunch after a local activity. We were seated well before our original lunch hour…a great accommodation for us. We were all seated at one long table. Our server was friendly and very helpful to this large group. Our lunches were very tasty Job well done!

First time and I was really pleased with our meal and the ambience. The expensive cocktails were lovely. Highly recommend the honey crisp sour. We had the French dip and the short rib sandwich sandwiches and they were delicious. The ciabatta rolls were just perfect for the sandwiches. The Shishido peppers, mushrooms, and cheese on the short rib sandwich were delicious. All of the wait staff were so friendly and responsive. Have to say the absolute best french fries I have ever had in my life - anywhere! Will come back.

We ordered the chorizo, paella, tres leches, and some Halloween special cocktails and everything came out delicious and well presented! The ambience was amazing, hosts were kind although super busy with the event rush. Definitely recommend going!
