We are FIVE fans for sure! Food is delicious, the staff is super friendly and the ambiance is on pointe. We look forward to any chance we are able to go with or without kids (kids menu is best in town maybe?!). Tonight we had the chopped salad, rigatoni, diablo shrimp, kids pizzas - all cooked to perfection! Brian is always super friendly!

It’s been a while since dining here. The food and service was great. It took a bit longer for us to get our food but we didn’t feel rushed. Everyone in the group was relaxed and enjoyed our lunch.
