    We love going to this restaurant and Valentine’s Day did not disappoint. The Valentines prefix menu was a great value, and all of it was excellent. Our server was outgoing and attentive.

    Everything that was ordered on the brunch menu was amazing. The chicken and waffles, the giant pretzel, Benedict’s and the French toast with whiskey syrup. All so good!!

    Our service was great. We were waited on by a trainee and her trainer and they were both wonderful. Most of the food was very good. We were very surprised to see that we were charged $3.95 for club soda with lime. Most restaurants don’t charge for club soda as it’s viewed as carbonated water. $8 of the bill was just for 2 club sodas. The fried chicken mac n cheese was dry but everything else was good.

    Food was very good!!! Wish there were more booths. Mostly there are tables and chairs Service was a little slow for the number of customers. Disappointed in staff. They didn’t do anything to make you feel welcome and some didn’t seem happy to be working there. Staff should smile more and talk to customers.
