    The service was slow and the food was subpar compared to other restaurants in the area. It was very disappointing to say the least

    Lovely Resturant. Staff was very friendly but very slow and the restaurant was not really busy. Our dessert took awhile to come & the coffee we ordered before that came well after we had finished our desserts. Food was excellent and we definitely will be going again
