The service was quick, attentive but not intrusive. The food was delicious. The ambience was good. My only criticism is that the food (burgers) were served on printed paper, which became wet with the juices of the food & sauces. The paper disintegrated snd stuck to the bottom of the burger which meant we inadvertently ate a bit. This wouldn’t be too bad if the paper was plain, but it had a lot of print on it. I only hope the print is not toxic or carcinogenic. Maybe use plain paper or none at all?
