You know that feeling of familiarity you get when you walk into a chain diner you’ve been in 100 times before? Now recall the feeling of familiarity you get when you walk into the restaurant down the street from your house with the owner that knows your name and greets you with a smile every time you walk through the door.

The Chicken parmesa was absolutely tasty, and the chef salad was huge, easily serving two meals. My wife especially enjoys it with oil and vinegar. The staff added to the experience with their warmth and friendliness.

First time visiting after hearing about the place and I’m 20 min away. The reviews are on point. Soups are delicious and portion sizes are very generous as I had to bring the other half of my panini home to enjoy later. This place the closest thing to being home. Service was impeccable and our server, Layla, was an angel! I knew from reading the reviews on the service I’d bring extra money for the well earned big tips. She certainly deserved it! We’ll be back for sure!
