Get to know us
Welcome to our restaurant, where family, community, and great food come together! We're Mo and Eric, two brothers who grew up in the small town of Sublimity, OR, and now call Salem, OR our home. As the owner and general manager, we are excited to bring our shared passion for delicious cuisine and warm hospitality to our friends and neighbors.
Our journey began with a simple idea: to create a place where everyone feels welcome and can enjoy a meal that delights the senses. With Mo’s vision and Eric's management expertise, we've crafted a dining experience that blends comfort, innovation, and a touch of zen.
