Do you know Irvin and Nell?

These two special folks come by often and you can usually find them enjoying themselves in the dining room.

Nell enjoys her Murphy-Goode red w**e and Bang Bang Shrimp, although she’s always open to trying one of our features. She even recommends us to others by telling them, “I’ve never had anything bad here.” Now that is quite the compliment!

Irvin is a bit of a wildcard when it comes to ordering—his favorites are always changing. Lately, though, the tuna has been at the top of his list!

Some people come into your restaurant as customers, but the truly special ones become part of its story. Irvin and Nell are one of those couples we’ve had the privilege of meeting and getting to know through the restaurant.

We’re so happy to claim them as part of our H.O.W. 2 family!
