Great place for birthday brunch!!

On 10/17/2025 John Paul Manganiello had this to say:
Service was very attentive and polite. The atmosphere is very welcoming and relaxed. The food alone is far past the casual dining standard. I make my own marinara sauce from scratch, and I can tell you just by flavor alone this restaurant does too, the best pasta sauce I’ve over had in a restaurant! The salad bar is excellently decorated and diverse in choices. Side note, Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert, because the selection is perfectly sweet and satisfying without being too rich. (Picture included is sausage and peppers after I mixed it up, it was much prettier before I dug into it)
