What our guests are saying

The food here is chef prepared and reasonably priced. Our first experience was Thanksgiving with a special menu, and my turkey dinner was excellent. My girlfriend loved their ham dinner. We revisited for lunch a few days ago, and I highly recommend their Fire Chefs Cheesesteak with the shaved ribeyes and the parmesan rosemary fries! They also cater, and the dishes brought to our office for a staff party was a hit. Give them a try, you will like it!

We had an incredible meal for our date night tonight. Jaime gave us great service (All about the U!) It was our first time trying their dinner service. Our entrees (Maple Pecan Crusted Salmon and Lobster Club) were delectable, but the Tuna Poke Nachos were absolutely addicting! Well done on a great dinner!
