Food was excellent. Server nice but I would have liked ice in my iced tea—and a refill. But once we were served she never returned until it was bill time. There were 4 tables in service so certainly not busy.

We had a nice experience at the restaurant and our server Mackenzie was lovely and most accommodating of a special request. Only reason for 4 versus 5 stars was the limited menu.
