General curiorities

Is your menu vegan/vegetarian friendly and do you accommodate dietary restrictions?

Our menu has several options to cater to most dietary restrictions; however, please note that some of our dishes cannot be modified in any way (please ask your servers for more details). Please call or email us to inquire about specific menu information.

Is the restaurant wheelchair accessible?

Yes it is! Our restaurant is wheelchair accessible including the seating on our back patio.

Why do you have a 15-minute grace period for seating a late reservation?

Out of respect to other present guests with a reservation, we reserve the right to offer your table after 15 minutes. If you arrive with your complete party after our grace period, you will be automatically removed to the waitlist.

Why Don’t You Seat Incomplete Parties?

Waiting to seat parties once they are complete helps ensure the timeliness and flow of our service. The enjoyment of our guests’ dining experience is our main concern.

do you have a dress code?

Nope, we do not! Just come in the usual attire that you’d wear to go see your mom.

Are kids allowed?

Yes of course, we’re a family restaurant. Please make sure to make a reservation and let us know ahead of time if children under 5 will be present. We also have a high chair as well.
