    I had a crispy calamari salad, and it was not too satisfying! It tasted bitter, not sure if it was the batter of the dressing.. I was disappointed 😑 overrated and not cheap either !!

    Calamari breading is really salty. As everyone else has said ...mac and cheese..mac and cheese. Sliders r good too. Best place for late late night dining.

    Go for the Cobb salad if you're looking for something reasonably light, way less intense than the fried chicken salad

    What is the deal with the hostess guy here?! He has a bitch-ass attitude and walks around the restaurant wearing sun glasses like he's the most powerful queen during brunch hours. Fuck that!

    When you get here try the calamari, tuna, or Mac attack to start.. Then dinner time calls for country fried steak, hanger steak, or telaggio chicken
