I've been there by myself and most of the time I have the deck to myself or a couple other people. Bentley is the Chef,owner,server,bartender,cashier,busser and ultimate maitre d. Great attentive service by a onsite owner. I like it that it takes awhile for the food ,as I talk to Bentley and relax on the deck. I've never called ahead, but if you have time constraints, I'm sure you can call and Bentley will prepare accordingly.It's like going to someones house and having a great meal. In fact , it is , Bentley lives there.And you can just drop in anytime.Super relaxed atmosphere.
