Delicious food and excellent service. Perfect place for family or friends. The only downside is, there is a wait. It was a beauitful day and didn't mine waiting outside on their chairs. Had the chicken sandwich, which was the bomb. I demolished it. Daughter had chicken fingers, which was delicous.

I love the deep red walls, the reproduction of famous paintings, and the classical music. The r...
