Stopped in for dinner today and just had a great meal. The restaurant as always was neat and clean and the food is so good. Today the front of house help was Sava, Erick, and Tren, their service was quick friendly and professional. They answered every question with a smile, checked on us to make sure everything was good and made us feel welcome. Thank you for a great experience.

Very cold in there. So bring a coat. Delicious noodle salad bowl. My kids only want to eat here because: they love it, memories of gramma and the “great” dept of health rating.

Service is always great.
