    We started with the Brussels Sprouts and they were crispy and excellent! We all had burgers for dinner and they were cooked to perfection! The cotton Candy for dessert was a huge hit for the birthday boy!

    Both the food and the service were quite good. The only real disappointment was the fact that no one from the restaurant read the notes that we had put on the OpenTable booking form. The result was not tragic, but certainly could’ve been better.

    I reserved a low top table for 2. When we arrived, we were asked if we were ok with a hightop table. I stated that we preferred a low top, of which there were multiple available. Hostess had someone sit us at our table, which turned out to be a hightop.

    The food was fine, but my burger was undercooked, and we both were served barely warm fries. I got the Ghostbuster burger, which turned out to be a lot sweeter than I expected it to be.
