Additionally, the chairs need to be more securely fastened to the ground, or have non-slip rubber beneath them, as they pose a fall risk. I hope our next visit is as good as the first, or even better. Kid-friendliness: This restaurant is not particularly suitable for children. The atmosphere is more geared towards adults. Our son repeatedly greeted our waitress, but she was quite rude, ignoring him completely. I found this very disappointing; children will be children, and there’s no need for a dismissive attitude towards their innocence. Parking: So far, we have been able to find parking during our visits. However, the parking spaces are a bit small, so we opted to bring our car instead of our truck.
