Very nice place, staff was very nice and they kept the place clean. Everyone had a smile though the owner seemed less interested in our interaction. Prices were decent and the food was really good.

Another sweet hidden gem. The food is made to order, and if you have dietary needs (low sodium, etc...) they will do their best to accommodate you. And you MUST try their strawberry citrus smoothie. Scrumptious in the summer and year round!
