We've eaten there a few times. Good food at reasonable prices, but the place was far from clean (the last time we ate there my wife vowed she'd never return because of that fact) and some of the waitstaff were not exactly friendly.

The new owners of that plaza nearly doubled the rent cost.
Expect more businesses there to leave.

Went there about once a month. Can not disagree with another poster about the cleanliness. Floors needed to be replaced years ago. Will miss them. Loved their fish dip.
