"What a sweet, fun find! Service here was great...All of the food was wonderful and the staff was excellent. We could tell that many of the customers there were regulars, which is a great indicator of the service provided. The space downstairs was beautiful and the shop upstairs had cute gifts to check out while waiting for our table."
