"We have come here several times to have drinks and appetizers at the bar. Quick and friendly service, happy hour is M-F from 3pm to 5pm with signature cocktails being $10. Loved their king pao brussel sprouts with a not too spicy drizzle and peanuts. The calamari is so crispy and crunchy with a ton of diced peppers, jalapeños and pepperocinis. Comes with a great dipping sauce. Had the Amelia drink with vodka, super refreshing."

"Stopped in for a bite to eat while shopping, had tomato soup and pot pie soup, both were delicious! Also had some drinks. They were out of an ingredient for the Holiday special, that was disappointing, also the bacon on the sandwich was ordered to be crispy and had to send the plate back. Very loud atmosphere but was able to have a conversation."

"Taste is Very Good. Service is Very Good. Atmosphere is also Very Good. When I asked them Extra Plates, Paper Napkins, and Extra Bazil Paste, etc. Their Action was Very Quick. I will visit them very soon \\(^0^)//"

"The food is amazing. Last time I was here, I had the mushroom burger (no longer available). It was so juicy and perfectly seasoned. I still think about that burger. I’ll have to try adding chopped mushrooms into the ground beef when I make my own. This time I had the salmon and cauliflower. It was good, but unfortunately, I am not fond of the capers in the dish. Next time, I’ll be diligent in ensuring there are no ingredients I particularly dislike before ordering. The rest of the dish was well-made and delicious. Our server Jamie was so attentive and made my group feel very welcome. He gave my mother his recommendation, and she ended up loving the panko chicken salad! It’s a nice restaurant, but the inside is too crowded and noisy for my taste. The outdoor seating area is the best option in my opinion."

"It was clean and had a comfortable atmosphere with really nice service staff. Though, strangely, there were a lot of people here with kids. Not sure if that is just a coincidence. My Chicken Parm was excellent, but my wife said her Salmon was fine although dry. The creme brulee we got for dessert was also really good."
