It's here again, our favorite time of the year, the Ethnic Night Season. If you would like a faxed menu for a given week, call on Tues. or Wed. and ask for Skip or Lynn and we will shoot one off to you.

As usual, we seek out the finest wine pairings from each region to pair with our food. Great care is taken to choose wines that are both appropriate with our food and representative of the region, yet priced for everyones budget. Anyone can spend a fortune for a great wine, but we relish the challenge of finding great wines that everyone can afford, and enjoy with dinner.

2007-08 Ethnic Night Dinner Schedule
Voted top honors for Best Ethnic Food for the past 5 years by publications such as Traverse the Magazine, Northern Express, etc.
