"Pure class! Tasty food, timely service, and enough varieties. Large car parking space behind the restaurant makes a hassle-free dining experience. But, covid precautions are not maintained strictly. Make sure you go here with mask and sanitizer. Last but not the least, don't miss the delicious filter coffee!"
