What to order

  • House specialties – what regulars come back for
  • Daily specials – often the freshest dishes
  • Local dishes – anything named after the town or region

Good to know

  • Check the latest hours before you go – independent restaurants change them more often.
  • Weekend evenings are usually the busiest time.
  • Tipping 18–20% on table service is standard in the US.
