Unique in my travels. Super friendly staff. I think the price was super fair. The food pushes the boundaries of what I am used too, but I'll never forget this restaurant as long as I live. Such great and different flavors!!! The ambiance was awesome. You will only eat so many meals in your life. This one you will remember.

Stone cups for beer glasses!

I truly recommend this gem, located in a traditional building. Lightest fried food I ever had, crispy & not heavy, it’s a 5/5 (bookings accepted).

Delightful building, good fried-things-onna-stick. The corn was great ( butter!) and mushroom too! 4.5 would be closer to my true rating.
