Love that they have a small filet mignon on their lunch menu that is reasonably priced. They serve it with fries, green beans, and choice of salad or soup. I picked the salad and was happy with the taste and the portion size. What was really nice though was the kids menu! They only charge 5.95 for the meal and it includes carrots and ranch dressing for a starter, a side dish, a drink, and ice-cream for dessert. One of my kids picked "mixed fruit" for his side and we were all surprised when it showed up and it was actually a mix of beautiful berries (black berries, blue berries and strawberries. Much better than the usual melon and a couple of grapes you get at most places. It was nice that the kids had the carrots and ranch to snack on and the ice-cream after the meal. It kept them occupied and allowed my husband and me a chance to enjoy our food! I'll go back!

We stopped in for a quick dinner last week and had a great meal. After having a few bad servers at other restaurants recently it was a nice change to have a fantastic waitress, Patria. She was fast and efficient and remembered everything about our order. A couple of things weren't perfect with our drinks and food and when she came by our table, she noticed them without our having to say anything and immediately took care of it. At the end of the meal she remembered that we were in a hurry and was immediately ready with our bill so we didn't have to wait at all. She was friendly, efficient and fast but most important she remembered what we needed/wanted and made sure it happened. The food and decor were great and it was the perfect place to stop in for a quick meal on the way home.

Service on the day before Valentines day was perfect. Well paced and friendly. Food was delivered as ordered and drinks were perfect as well. We frequent this restaurant because it's close. You have about a 50% chance of extremely slow service, so we were pleased things were spot on for Valentines!

To begin, we agree on two small plates. Juliet selects the steamed potstickers with ginger-pork filling and spicy soy dipping sauce. And when they say “spicy” they’re not joking around. It’s a delicious dipping liquid with red pepper flakes that burn the lips so good you can’t help but go back for another dunk. For my part, I can’t resist ordering Goat Cheese and Artichoke Poppers. They’re lightly deep-fried (if that’s possible) balls of cheese and artichoke, so creamy and tasty, with fresh thyme and lemon zest. The poppers are the clear winner, despite the potstickers’ best spicy efforts. I’m not really in the mood for a huge slab of steak or even the fussy trappings of street tacos (though they do sound pretty good). Instead, I opt for another small plate and a flatbread. Since the calamari are battered with a peppery buttermilk batter, much like Twisted Rooster’s, I go that route. The squid are cooked just about perfect, and when dipped into the sesame-ginger sauce, even better. Without hesitation, our waiter recommends the BBQ Chicken Flatbread over the Italian Sausage Flatbread. The thin dough is cooked crispy, chunks of BBQ chicken on top, with mild red onions, cilantro, and three kinds of cheese—pepper jack, romano, and cheddar. I share a couple pieces, but I’m digging it too much to let it go without a fight. Despite the allure of Carrot Cake in a Jar, none of us is up for dessert. Everyone is too pleased with their dinner selections to ruin it with the risk of sweet, it seems. As we bid farewell to our friendly server, we promise him (and each other) we’ll be back soon. Next time I’ll save up my appetite to find out if their Stuffed Chicken Breast is as good as we’re told.

My wife and I went there for dinner at 7:30 on a Saturday. When we got there we were told 20 minute wait for a table. We watched table after table leave, with very few tables being sat. After 35 minutes we were sat, and I could count 16 empty tables spread around the restaurant. There didn’t seem to be a shortage of wait staff or cooks, so it didn’t make a lot of sense. I ordered the Disco Fries and the Almond Tilapia, my wife ordered the Strip steak. The decor was good looking, lighting was nice, noise level was good. We had plenty of time to evaluate all those things waiting 40 minutes for food. The Appetizer and main courses came at the same time. The fries looked like they spent 15 minutes under the heat lamp. They tasted good, but they had lost their crunch by then. The fish was well cooked. The almond crusted fillet came with some large blackberries on the side. I never would have thought that the pairing would be as good as it was. My wife's steak was seasoned well and was juicy, but overcooked. Her Peach Long Island was fantastic. The server was very polite, but non-existent for most of the night. He dropped off our meals and we didn’t see him again for 20 minutes when he came by to drop the check. The food was Great in concept, and 2/3 of the dishes were well prepared, but the timing screwed it over. They were not terribly busy, so I don’t know what the issue was.
