    One of us has mobility issues and need to use a scooter. We eat early to avoid crowds. The staff was incredibly nice about getting the scooter off of the street and parked out of the way. On top of that, the food was really good. Service was also outstanding even after the good impression with the scooter. It really helps that it was before the evening rush, but you would be surprised how often the service is poor just before the dinner rush.
