Due to the many varied choices on our ample menu, & the volume of our restaurant, we will not allow changes to our menu as it creates difficulties in our kitchen.Thank you for your understanding

The state mandates that we limit the seating duration to 90 minutes per party. Thank you for your cooperation.
