We visited this restaurant on Sept 27 and were told that the establishment would be closing for good that weekend and that the staff would all loose their jobs. As of today the website lists it as still being open. What a horrible way to get more tips from people who fell for the story

Way over priced for cheap food thats burnt.. You can at least try to make it look good. 30 dollars for this junk they brought to my table.
