Selection and prices on drinks are good. Wings are awful. Loose, runny "sauce" over bones with lame, dry meat.
I liked that they had lots of craft beer on tap in my search it came up as brewery but it not but was really glad for selection
I had a grizzly paw raspberry ale
All the food looked good that walked by me and they have great daily specials
The waitress I had was super nice I sure will go back again since I’m the area for awhile

We have been here a few time and always have a great experience. They were very busy tonight, service was spot on and the food was good. Fantastic local pub.

Lived in Tuscany for almost a year and we finally found time to try the local pub.
Asked our server what's the best thing on the menu and she said she couldn't tell us but she listed some things that were popular. Not a good start. Maybe she has some dietary restrictions but you would hope the staff ate the food there to be able to make recommendations.
I had the jagerschnitzel which came out smothered in gravy that tasted like it was made from a powder. The mashed potatoes were only hot on one side and almost cold not just cool in the middle, and the schnitzel itself was just average.
My wife had the gnocchi salad which she said was good. I did try a byte and there was a lot of vinegar for the vinaigrette for my taste. It could have just been transition from what I was eating to that, that gave it such a jump for me.
The truffle fries were the other thing we had and these were some of the best truffle fries I have ever had. The only thing that was too bad with these was the chaved Parmesan falls off the fries more than a ground Parmesan would. So most of the cheese just ended up at the bottom of the bowl.
The last thing is we were sitting in a booth with our own TV which is a nice touch. But the TV looks to be 15-20 years old because it is very dim. And the image was wide screen standard def on this high def (probably only 720p) TV so for the hockey game we had that thick black bar all the way around the image. Some of the other big screens around the bar were also showing signs that they are VERY old.
With enough beer you wouldn't care. But AV is my industry and when it looks like that it really takes away from my experience.
Still lots to try on the menu. We will be back. But definitely not somewhere to do if you are trying to impress someone. More so just for the convenience.

Great service - these gals work very hard! I have been coming here for 17 years..
Hate that now the staff have to hand out cards to get reviews ! Not a team building exercise.. very stressful for them! Surprised that the owner Greg has allowed this!
