    The food was delicious. We had the omelet, and they made it to our liking. Not disappointed. I give an A++. The waiter was very accommodating to our request, and even took the time to take a photo of us at the table. I gave him a great tip. I also give him an A++. I am a regular customer, and eaten at the restaurant several times. I love their chocolate martini! Totally recommend! That drink gets an A+++++! Leaves me smiling and happy!
