Service: We ordered takeout before we biked there, and our food was ready on time. We also decided we should eat at the restaurant outside, and someone immediately cleared and cleaned a table for us!

We actually saw a woman kick a napkin from the floor near here to another table and then complain about how the table wasn’t cleaned well enough for her. It was insane but that’s the kind of stuff you see in the north shore 🤣 The staff seems to roll with the punches - totally admirable.
