“My friend and I were on the way home from NYC and took a wrong turn... and are we glad we did! We had a absolutely delightful lunch at this restaurant. My chicken cajun wrap was packed with moist and tender chicken and my friend’s hamburger was delicious as were the plentiful helpings of french fries. Our waitress was thoughtful and a pleasure to talk with and right at my side when we needed refills on our coffee and water. In fact, when we go to NYC again this year, we are making it a destination for lunch or dinner.”
