I grew up in the restaurant business, and all the places my parents had over the years always had a sign in the window that said 'No Shirt, No Shoes, NO SERVICE!'.

(more) I grew up in the restaurant business, and all the places my parents had over the years always had a sign in the window that said 'No Shirt, No Shoes, NO SERVICE!'. No one was offended or screamed about that, so now, with a crippling pandemic that has killed thousands and destroyed just as many business, why is a mask a problem? Aren't people tired of staying home, of the virus numbers going up, of businesses closing because of Covid? Put a damn mask on for goodness sakes when out in public, to protect yourself and others, stop being selfish and petty, please, it is not a political issue, but a HEALTH issue. I'm not a doctor, but I guarantee that wearing a mask is better than wearing a ventilator.

While it is very annoying how that keep raising the fees restaurants are required to pay, it has provided us good exposure and an additional outlet for customers to indulge in our great menu. Payments are quick, no complaints there, but Grubhub has become quite a racket with their increasing rates on both restaurants and consumers. We’ve been forced to raise prices for delivery and not offer certain menu items to try to make up for what Grubhub charges us.

As a restaurant owner, clearly I love food! But what I love more is the people. You meet people from all over the world, from all walks of life - every point on the spectrum. And the best thing is when a guest becomes a regular and then a friend. Most of our closest friends that we frequent with... (more) As a restaurant owner, clearly I love food!
