- AAAishaOct 3, 20265.0The heated patio atmosphere was truly delightful; it's super cozy and was greatly contrasted with the cool outside air. The food was delicious and came quickly along with the drinks; my friends and I didn't wait too long to receive our orders. And the service was splendid! Our waitress: Ava was super friendly and open to conversation with us. She made suggestive reviews on what we should get when we were unsure of the menu and overall, left a friendly impression on my friends and I.

She was able to make jokes and create great banter. She catered to all our needs and was able to make it a fun experience. The service and atmosphere only made it better, as the outdoor patio had heating and other useful amenities which were top notch.
