    Food was amazing, we tried almost everything. The service was a bit slow after we got our food and the people by us were drunk and loud, it was very nice after they left. Music was enjoyable. We will definitely be back. One thing i wished I knew before we went is you have the option to cook your own steaks or you can have them cook it for you.

    It was AMAZING from START to FINISH!!! It's a great little restaurant, tucked away in some nice, new apartment complex in Mission Valley. HOWEVER, it is on the side, and has its own parking. WE FOUND PARKING RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE RESTAURANT!!! We were warmly greeted by a friendly woman, and taken to a nice, large table!!! It was perfect because we were going to order lots of food. I especially knew about the pizza, After sitting down, our waitress, HUNTER, who was superb in every sense of the word, came up to the table. She began with drink orders, then appetizers and entrees!!! She recommended the pizza be extra crispy, AND IT WAS DELICIOUS!!! As for my partner, he had the Grilled Chicken Sandwich!!! When it came time for the dessert, HUNTER even brought it out with a CANDLE on it!!! It could not have been a better lunch!!!!
