    Our waitress Jessica was AMAZING!!! The food was really good but I thought the carrots were a bit too sweet for my liking. The pancake was so dense fluffy and buttery, the cucumber salad was one of my favorite veggie dishes. The potatoes were good but we didn’t taste any jalapeño. Overall great experience!

    It was our third visit this year and each time is a fantastic experience. The hand rolled pasta was simple but delicious. The burger makes you feel like you're eating a juicy steak with groceries. The salmon was the best I've had in the city. My wife loved the chicken breast. Great value for money, too. My only constructive criticism would be to have fries available (rather than chips) with the burger.
