Customer Review Summary
Reviewers center on the service, with the waiting staff described as friendly, helpful and welcoming, and food that arrived promptly and was called delicious. The children's pizza making party and a daughter's birthday celebration stand out, where the host is praised as kind, helpful and good with the children, entertaining them while keeping them in line when needed. One parent adds that the manager kept the coffees coming throughout. A server who knew the menu well recommended a dessert that one table enjoyed to finish the meal, and another reviewer singles out the chef and manager as fab. Several other reviews are short, offering only general praise for the team and hospitality. The one lukewarm visit was a quiet lunch where the staff member at the door offered no greeting or smile and left the diner unsure where to sit until they asked. The food was only okay, though a second staff member who came over later was described as attentive and friendly and salvaged the visit.

“I dropped in for a quiet lunch on October 14th for the first visit here. The arrival experience wasn't great, as the staff member at the door didn't offer a greeting or smile and left me unsure of where to sit until I asked.The food was okay. On a positive note, a second staff member came over later was fantastic. She was attentive and friendly, which really helped salvage the overall experience.”

“My daughter recently had a pizza making party here and she loved it. The other parents also said how good it was. Emily was an awesome host and had an excellent balance of entertaining the kids but also keeping them in line when occasionally needed! Manager was also very helpful and kept us going with coffees throughout.”
