    Our server was EXCELLENT. She knew we had theater tickets and made sure everything came on time. When the kitchen made a mistake with one of my kiddos’ burgers, she not only comped his burger but my other two kids’ burgers as well. She really went the extra mile. The ambience was fun and the food delicious. Highly recommend!

    The ambiance is lovely, wait staff attentive, food excellent. We did have one person with gluten/allergies and we were not asked about allergies, the potato gash had cheese on it- minor the portions were plentiful.
