                                                        We ordered 4 main dishes and shared them all and we thought ALL of them were SO good!!! Such amazing flavors. Two of us were gluten free and were very happy to see more than the normal 2 or 3 options you see on other menus. Highly recommend!

                                                        Gorgeous patio and friendly service. Only one vegetarian option and I had a difficult time ordering, My husband loved his lunch and I enjoyed great sweet potato fries. Special place and I would return!
