    The entrées were amazing. So much so that I wanted to get another order of mine for dessert. I wish I had because the desserts were awful. The cookie skillet arrived cold and hard. The crepe was so rubbery it was difficult to cut. The waiter was nice enough but a majority of the meal was spent thirst as our drinks were never refilled.

    We were excited to dine here for my daughter’s 14th birthday. We were seated upstairs which had no decor, no music and was just old tables on a worn out floor. We originally booked it because of the vibe in the main room. The food was mediocre. When we sent a steak back because it was very overcooked, one of the wait staff made a rude comment. However, they did replace it and our actual waiter was very good.

    The food is delicious - try the frozen hot chocolate - and service friendly and quick. Somewhat pricey but ok considering quality of food.
