⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Madison Hardin
My husband and I are from out of town and came here for some dinner and we had such an amazing experience, and Karissa truly made our night! From the moment we sat down, she was so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely kind. She knew the menu really well and gave great recommendations that we ended up loving. Our drinks were always refilled, everything came out perfectly timed, and she checked in just the right amount without being overbearing!!

Karissa was an absolutely fantastic server! She was friendly, professional, and made us feel taken care of the entire time. She was quick with everything, answered all our questions with a smile, and made sure our meal came out just right. It’s rare to get service that feels so genuine, and she really made our visit memorable. We truly appreciated her attention to detail and great attitude—she’s a huge asset to the restaurant!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Ronda Ledbetter
We are from out of town and visited this establishment as we make monthly trips to Michigan and have somehow never been here, our waitress was amazing(Candy). She made this our favorite place and our now go to monthly stop when we are in town! What wasn't perfect she made sure to make it wonderful...the best. We are all still talking about going back. Looking forward to our next trip. I wish more establishments kept waitresses that truly enjoy their job and care about the customer experience. She is definitely an atmosphere all on her own. We love her.

What an awesome decision to stop here after Washington vs. Michigan football game. It was a good place to decompress from a tough loss for our Huskies. But Hannah helped us cheer up! Mahalo Hannah for great service! GO DAWGS! #operationdubsup
