    Delicious food and service . I just didn't enjoy the river view because the patio isn't private, and people walking along River Walk can sit almost on top of you.

    Melissa was the best waitress! So kind and thoughtful. We mentioned in a side conversation that we wanted to try the hot honey pizza but were not going to order it, and she brought us a side of hot honey to add to the pizza we ordered. She also brought us a free dessert and made amazing recommendations. Great experience!

    We got our salad. Had to ask for serving utensils for the salad since sharing. Pretty much had just started eating the salad when a food runner came and dropped off the pizza. So basically all food came at once. Then we had to ask for clean plates for the pizza. It was very rushed
