    Jasmine was our server, and she did a phenomenal job taking good care of us. The whole staff at your Kildeer store make a great team, and work very well together. We were there for dinner service on Thanksgiving Day, and even though they were extremely busy, everything appeared to go smoothly, and for the most part, the staff seemed to be in good moods and kept a smile on their faces.

    Three of our group ordered the special turkey dinner for Thanksgiving which was excellent. There was a selection of light and dark meat, a nice mix of carrots and green beans, dressing, mashed potato and cranberry sauce. A pumpkin based dessert was also very nice. All of the seasonings were delicious and everything was cooked just right. One member of our party ordered -- and thoroughly enjoyed -- the chicken risotto and a side of vegan tortilla soup.
