Wearing a mask while placing your order is a small request. B... View all feedback.

I got salmonella food poisoning from a salad eaten at this establishment. Worst night of my life. I have been in contact with the health department so no one else suffers that same fate. Nice patio though. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2 Service: Dine in Price per person: $20–30
My fritata was cold and gross. This place has been going downhill for years and that was the last time. Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1 Service: Dine in Price per person: $20–30
