"My wife and I just had lunch here, we relocated from Florida and are out trying new places, before I tell you how amazing the food was, because it was just that! I actually came to give a review of the employee who helped us, Esther, hands down one of the happiest, most cheerful, joyful, playful human beings I've ever met! This establishment should value this person, this world needs more people like her, so fun and inviting, we are already excited to come back again not only for the food, but to be entertained by Esther! A wonderful soul!!!"
