While what is happening in the world, in our country and in our local community is scary and uncharted in many ways, some normalcy can go a long way as we adjust to what will be the new normal for an indefinite amount of time.
That is why, for now, we have decided to stay open, at least for the time being. We are taking extra precautions to ensure the safety of all our staff and customers, and are continuously monitoring what is going on, to ensure we can continue to uphold the level of safety and quality you are all used to for the past 40+ years.
At the end of the day, we all need to eat. Give us a call and we'll make sure to be around to feed you.
