The majority of our local produce is utilized for our protein based entrees; with our tiny kitchen team we are not able to create off-menu vegetarian or vegan entrees. We do typically have plant based starters and shareables, but options are limited, so please check the menu first to make sure its a good fit for you before joining us!
We no longer serve our Fried Chicken special and no longer can accommodate take out orders!
Additionally, we do not have any kid’s menus available, thanks.
