The service was very fast and helpful. We quickly got all of our drinks, appetizers, and main dishes. The waitress was very polite and answered all the questions we had about the menu with ease and clarity. The food was delicious. We ordered the goopy burger and maltagliati. Both of which were good portion sizes for the price and had great flavor.

I love the relaxed feel of this place. I definitely would return to try more dishes. The American cheeseburger was amazing. I loved they had a singer in the background playing some songs.
