we sat at the bar and Carrie was our waitress she did a good job of making sure we had our drinks and anything we needed. Kendall the manager was amazing to watch get the food out of the kitchen in good times and correct any problems that came up . I'd say for a new establishment with limited training they are doing great . We will definitely be back and hope to try the breakfast next time . Portions were fair for the price
