You cannot get an adult beverage there, but you can get water and Pepsi products. They offer appetizers and full entrees. We ended up each getting "bites" which were a cheesesteak sandwich and mine was a gyro but not called that. The bites offered your choice of sides-fries, side salad, fruit cup which I chose the side Caesar salad. The salad was very hefty for a side salad and he got the fries which were tasty. Daniel was our waiter but all the staff were friendly! They had fly fans for the tables which were helpful because we ate outside. I don't even know if there is an inside?! It was so pretty to have the trees acting as canopies and shading us from the sun! We will most definitely be back!

The Pho Pot Stickers are an absolute must-try; I don't know how they packed that much flavor into a dumpling, but I'm hooked. The vibe is super laid-back, and I love that you can grab a drink from the bar next door while you wait. Fresh food, friendly staff, and a gorgeous canopy of trees--it's officially our new favorite hangout. Can't wait to come back for the Ahi Tuna!"

    Six of us dined here for dinner this past Friday for a friend's birthday. It was our first time…read morehere. One couple had a hard time finding the place even though they used their GPS. It's in a gated community. The interior is lovely, but it also felt like we were back on a cruise ship (like the sky lounge on Celebrity). There's a nice large bar and lots of big windows. There's music between 5-8pm on Fridays. It was pretty loud, which made it difficult to talk to each other. Service started out slow, as we waited for a waitress to come by and take our drink orders. But she was attentive afterwards. Food: My husband had the veal parmesan with linguini. He loved the linguini but said the veal was "okay." The focaccia bread tasted like it was fresh out of the oven. I had the chicken saltimbocca, which the sauce and sautéed spinach were so, so salty! I had to scrape off the sauce and then eat the chicken with the mashed potatoes. The chicken could have been a little more tender, but it wasn't dried out. I also had the Caesar salad, which was very good. Two others ordered the sea scallops (four scallops) that came with risotto and asparagus. They both thought it was very good. One had the fish and chips (a nice size piece of fish) and the last person had the veal parmesan. They thought their food was okay. We all agreed we may not dine here again because of the distance from where we live and having favorite restaurants with better food with shorter driving distances.

    Like another person stated, if you can find your way in-you'll be very pleased!…read more We went early on a Friday night and the place was spacious and elegant. The hostess was friendly and we asked to sit at the bar. There we were greeted by Anthony and a lively duo playing some music. I ordered the Cucumber Flower Fizz cocktail which was fun to watch being made and even tastier! My guy ordered a bottled beer. We ordered the calamari and the oven baked focaccia bread. The focaccia was soft, warm and slightly sweet. There was a dipping bowl with some olive oil to add or not. Very good both ways! Then we split an entree of the Chicken Saltimbocca. The chicken was tender and well seasoned, it was served with mashed potatoes and spinach. We both agreed it was a unique spot and will def visit again!

    We came in this past Sunday and were so happy we did! It was crowded and we were told we'd have to…read morewait about 30 minutes. That was totally fine - but we ended up waiting about 10 minutes - even better!! They'll put your name on a wait list then send you a text so you can easily track when your table is almost due. We went for good food and left super satisfied. My mom ordered the Southern Breakfast which offered a good amount of food and she loved it, she said the ham was very tasty and that it tasted like bacon! It was nice for that option you could choose a biscuit or toast as a side. We also got a single biscuit and gravy to share. The gravy was delicious and the chorizo added a nice little spicy kick to it. I can see why these are so popular here! My brother ordered the dirty south biscuit and he was also very satisfied. It had a little bit of everything and was steps above a traditional breakfast sandwich. I personally ordered a pancake topped with strawberries and I love that they offer to bake the strawberries in too. Bacon was crispy, thick. Everything was super fresh. Our server was wonderful and I regret not catching her name. She came about 5 times to ask if we needed anything, any extra coffee, coffee to go. She was exceptional and I appreciate that they are so detail oriented here. We had a great meal and ate very comfortably here. Only issue is that we were slightly ready for a nap after. So happy to have stopped by!

    Definitely a great breakfast spot! My friend enjoyed her breakfast (including her bloody mary); I…read morewas a little disappointed with the dirty biscuit - it wasn't as flavorful as I was expecting. I'd still go back to try other things.
