Tori is AMAZING
We had an amazing experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our waitress, Tori! We had a LARGE party with several kids and some goofy, silly adults, and she handled all of us like an absolute champ! 😂❤️ Tori was so friendly, patient, and engaging with everyone at the table. She didn’t just take our order and walk away—she genuinely interacted with us, made us feel welcome, and kept up with our big, lively group with such a wonderful attitude. Serving a large party is no easy task, especially when kids and playful adults are involved, but she made the entire experience enjoyable! It’s not every day you come across someone who can handle a crowd like ours while still making everyone feel special. Tori truly went above and beyond, and she deserves recognition for the incredible job she did. If we come back, we would absolutely love to have her as our waitress again! Thank you, Tori, for making our experience so memorable! You are amazing at what you do! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We contacted Green Acres to thatch and reseed our lawn. The work went well. After the fact we noticed that they hadn't thatched around some existing sprinklers. I contacted Luis to let him know. He assured me he would be out personally to do what ever was necessary to make it right. Luis went above and beyond, the amount of time and
