Great service and the food was so fantastic. When we first arrived, it was bare but because it's beside the theatre, when the movie ended, the restaurant filled up within 15 minutes and by the time we left there was a line up at the door. I will definitely go back.

My family and I enjoyed my husband’s birthday, sharing: OYSTER MUSHROOM KALAMARI, KOREAN FRIED CHIKKIN SKEWERS, and ONION RINGS & CHIMICHURRI SAUCE. Our main dishes were: THE BEET SALAD, CRISPY BBQ BURGER, SOUTHERN FRIED CHICK’UN BURGER, and MAC N’ CHEEZ BOWL. Finally, we closed with one of the best desserts ever: CREAM CHEEZ GLAZED CARROT CAKE, LEMON TART, and CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE & MOUSSE. Everything was delicious!!! Thanks
