What recent reviews say

Most visits yield reliable food and warm service, with staff remembering regulars and celebrating milestones. However, recent visits surface serious gaps: a roach incident left one long-time customer unable to return, pricing miscommunications have frustrated diners, and some staff lapses in attention and professionalism undermine the friendly baseline.

Named servers like Parlay and Gypsy earn consistent praise for attentiveness and care. The location honors birthdays with complimentary cakes and offers happy hour specials on beer and margaritas. Staple items like the chicken sandwich and burgers draw returning visits, though consistency slips occasionally.
