Inside Scoop
- Arrive early, especially on weekends, as they don't take reservations and fill up quickly.
- Be aware the restaurant is small and can get cold in winter due to the door opening directly outside.
- The table near the window has uncomfortable seating, so try to avoid it if possible.
- Some dishes, particularly the Favorite 5, can be heavy on mayo and sauces, so ask if you prefer less.
- Expect loud pop music, which might not be for everyone.
