Went to this restaurant this evening. Wonderful experience from the moment I walked in. There was no waiting for a table. An employee quickly walked over with a smile and seated me immediately. He made me feel welcomed. The restaurant was warm and inviting. My server was Agnes. She was great! Friendly and kind and served with a smile. It's rare to find good customer service nowadays. She was genuine and on point. I had the fish and chips which was the special for the day. Excellent price. Portion size was great. It came out fresh and hot! Delicious. I also had the mini croffles

This is a really neat spot and I would definitely go back to try out more of the menu. It’s a great environment, beautiful paintings and nice scenery. It isn’t overly busy and it’s not loud, you can actually have a nice conversation. The reason for 3 stars is due to the food quality. Don’t get me wrong it wasn’t bad food, but there is room for improvement. My wife and I got the “two can dine deal” advertised as $35.99 each, which of course turned into $90 for the meal after tax and tip. We got the short ribs with veggies and the gnocchi with veggies. Both meals were about a 2.5-3.0 out of 5.

Went for two for one cake with coffee. The cakes were absolutely delicious. Great value for a coffee visit with friend. Service was great. Guru showed us all the cakes and which one he recommends based on what we like.. We had the German chocolate and the Neapolitan. Highly recommend a visit for Sunday cake special. All servers were very pleasant and helpful.

Visited this cozy cafe recently. It has wide variety of food options. Loved the alfredo pasta with mushrooms, the spinach dip and bruschetta. We did not like the chicken sandwich, it was dry and cold. We conveyed it to the staff and staff was polite and apologized. Overall, a great place to hangout just make sure you tell your preferences while ordering.
