Accidents can happen to anyone, but I've never seen an incident like this at a restaurant in this price range.

10/10 food, well priced

Google Maps Top praises

About 10 - 15 went by and the device didn’t vibrate, so I just walked over and they advised that my food was ready.  It looked like it was sitting there, but I was not notified.  I picked it up and  joined the family at an outside table and started to dig in.  All the food was very fresh and delicious.  I really enjoyed everything despite the moderate portion size, high price tag and lag in notification that food was ready.

Above all I value consistency in the basics and both times they saved the entire perception of the dinner.
