As always, an excellent experience today. Ariana was our food server and was friendly and helpful. However, what stands out is that the new manager, John,, stopped by and chatted with us for a while. Of course he was interested in how it was going for us and shared a little more of his background what brought him there. Up shot … folks are paying attention there. Coupled with the excellent food, it made for a nice outing.
