“ 2025 update: I've been back in between with local friends , and in July, I took some out-of-town friends here for a quick reliable delicious mean. Everyone was impressed, especially my teenage diner guest! Everyone at the restaurant is always so kind and the food never disappoints. I love this place, the owner/staff all seem to be very happy people and that makes me happy too. We ate a ton and the bill after tips was under $35/pp. As far as I know this place is BYOB still... Do call to double check! 2024 Group dinner: everyone left happy and full (both stomach and wallet)! Amazing wings, yummy tofu. ”
