First time here. Really enjoyed the relaxed ambience and the whole store set up. Food was really good, it tasted fresh and the combination of flavors was very creative. The staff was super friendly. It's a bit pricey but I don't mind spending the extra couple bucks on good food supporting a local business. Can't wait to go back and try some of the other dishes and maybe check out the patio area.
