   Sub par at best. The service was absolutely horrible. Our waitress clearly didn’t want be there and it showed. Didn’t see her smile the entire time. We barely got greeted when we entered. The food was just okay. The whole ambience was giving cafeteria…definitely not restaurant.

   I had previously been to KitchenCray and Zell’s Kitchen kept popping up on my Instagram feed so I decided to try it. The food was delicious and Darrin was very attentive and kind. I guess I expected some enhanced decor but there was none.

   Reservation was at 12 food didn’t come out until 230!!! The server was very apologetic but the owner seemed to be very preoccupied with specific tables and guest. It was not a pleasant experience. I will not be back.

   Great, home cooked meals! My family dined here Thanksgiving 2024 and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. The owner was very attentive to ensure our orders were prepared and served timely and with a smile. Please try this restaurant, support a small, woman-owned business.
