First time there! Wish I had gone sooner. The food, atmosphere and service was fantastic(shout out to the server Kim:). I got the Greek Skillet with pancakes and they were both great! Also, I had to get the fresh squeezed orange juice(as the machine was near my table.🍊) Kitchen staff did a great job with the food. No wait for me on a Saturday morning either, and they were busy. Definitely recommend this place.
