I had a very polite and respectful server, he had dreads if that helps you identify him. He was telling me about how much he loved his job. Great service 👍

I had a server who went BEYOND his way to give me an amazing time here. He was telling me how he just got a retwist on his dreads, one of his favorite styles of hair he had ever done. Good server overall!

Sorry about my mother Jean Davis, she is old and senile and a little racist, I’m sure the young man with dreadlocks is heavenly.
