What diners are saying
Diners consistently praise this local favorite for its welcoming atmosphere and phenomenal service, making it a go-to spot for family celebrations. The menu is celebrated for its variety, with standout dishes including the baked stuffed shrimp, "buffalo-y" chicken salad, and perfectly cooked rack of lamb. While the Greek-style pizza is a major draw—noted for its unique pan-cooked crispy crust and distinctly sweet sauce—some guests find the sweetness unexpected. Reviewers also highlight generous portions, excellent Italian wedding soup, and high-quality specials like Chicken Piccata.
