I had the cauliflower soup which was pretty good after adding some pepper and then the fish of the day with veggies, all of which was very well seasoned and tasty.Posted on Google![]()

O local é bastante aconchegante...parece casa de vó. Parece ser um negócio familiar. A sopa era boa ...mas eu já tomei melhores. As pessoas são agradáveis e muito solicitas. Recomendo.Posted on Google![]()

Definitely stop here for the steak sandwich and fries. The meat is amazing quality and they nailed the whole sandwich! Fries were also great. My boyfriend got the cod and it was nice and fresh, but the steak sandwich stole the show!Google rating score: 4.6 of 5, based on 622 reviews
