I love this little restaurant. We've been there several times and each time we've loved the food. You feel like you need to savor each bite. The owner is very friendly and welcoming. Service is great. The decor is cozy and nice. I don't know if they still have it, but they had an early bird dinner that was an especially good deal. But even without the early bird dinner, the quality of food is comparable to a place that is twice as expensive.
