    This is such a cute spot right on Main St! I got the black bean burger and the sweet potato fries, both of which were delicious. Super customizable and tons of vegan options. Louisa took great care of us!

    I had a great experience here with a friend. Sandwich was amazing and super affordable. I think our server was named Billy and he was amazing! We specifically gave him a great review. Great vibes and fabulous food.

    I went to the tomato shack with my best girlfriends and let me just say I had the most wonderful time! The plain Jane and Tony’s pizza is out of this world fantastic! Everyone should go with their loved ones and enjoy a delicious slice of warm cheesy goodness pizza and don’t forget the garlic nuts ;-)

    This place has been long time favorite from the days my mother and I ate here (and she has since passed so it’s now nostalgic to come here with my young son in her memory). Our waiter was very attentive and polite and made our experience a great one in the bistro. The food was fresh, while still being so delicious. I have so many food allergies so this has always been a go to spot that can always accommodate my many food restrictions. The manager here Josh is also great! He knows how to read the room and wants to step in if ever there is an issue being very hands on. I also loved how diverse the atmosphere was from ethnicities to different age groups. Even when I vow to “no longer get take out” this will always be an exception because of its clean ingredients and my hope is this place stays around for decades to come!

    I came for the wings but when I saw the healthier menu options on this winter day I chose the eggplant meatballs. I asked for cheese and they delivered on my meal and in my to go (pictured below) because the portion was large for me! Both drinks I had were return worthy an elderflower martini and a pear-tini! They gave me a tomato bisque sample as I was waiting for my meal. Perfect place for comfort food and great drinks on a winter day! They also have happy hour menu for food and drinks.
