“ I have been to their downtown location a couple of times for both takeout and dining in. I’m happy that they’ve finally opened a branch near my area. It’s spacious with nice decor. Their food is filling and full of flavor. Also, the prices are reasonable. ”
“ Amazing restaurant the food is always good. I loved the location downtown the only bad thing was that it was small so eating inside was not always comfortable but this new location is big and really cute. Also, If you love or get anxious about eating alone this place is a really good option the atmosphere is great ( they even give you a little stand for your phone if you want to watch something while you eat ) ”
“ When I found out about this location, I was ecstatic! I had gone to eat at the location downtown and loved my experience there despite the small space. This one offers the best of both worlds, a large dining area, and high-quality food. Love it! ”
