This was a wonderful place. Their original place was in the Maple Village shopping center, in a little hole in the wall place. It was packed on weekends! Good to great food, and a nice atmosphere. Add its being inexpensive, and it was just great.

They did well enough to "expand" by moving, and it was horrid. I think I ate there twice before they died. The food was as good as ever, but it was...strange. For one thing, there were these blue lights which made things look odd. The place was cavernous, making me think I was eating in an weirdly lit cave.

I still miss the place.
