First time going there. Everything was really good! This was my first time eating chicken burger and they didn’t disappoint me. Food was very good with reasonable prices. Staff was nice and polite. We made a reservation and didn’t have to wait at all. We arrived and went straight to the table. The even took in count my request for space for the stroller. I would recommend it. The only bad thing is that brunch is only for weekends .
