    Delicious food and great service! I come here often because parking is usually plentiful in the nearby shopping area and the vibes are good. The servers are always fantastic and friendly.

    We arrived at the time of our reservarion and the place was empty. We had to wait around 15 minutes to be seated and 10 minutes more to get the menus and water. After another 20 minutes waiting we decided to leave the place.

    We did the HRW menu. Everything was delicious. The two standout dishes for me were the campechana and the Tuscan salmon. The atmosphere reminds you of a European cafe. Perfect place for a couples dinner.

    Our experience was excellent!!! Sunday was quiet without a large crowd there. The ambiance is quaint and the service and food were excellent!!! Our portions were very generous and the iced tea was delicious.
