Editing: I'm moving food to 3 because I was a bit angry when I posted this review. This was the first bad visit, and the visit itself was fine, the aftermath, not so much. Original post: Maybe teach your bartenders that an Absolute Stress does NOT use tequila, which my wife is allergic to. If they don't know how to make one, just tell us darn it. Allergic reactions has totally ruined Saturday with big plans and might be a trip to the ER. The internet provides lots of recipes, look them up when you don't know what you are doing. I'm giving a 1 for food because I consider that food and drink. Drink is a minus 10.

This restaurant is a Montgomery tradition and renowned by locals for great food and service for a reasonable value. No reservations on weekends so plan accordingly. Everything on the menu is good but I like their onion rings, crab claws and West Indies salad for appetizers. I favor their Steaks and seafood for entrees. Their green salad is fresh The kids menu is one of the best in MGM for quality and value.

Unfortunately, the kitchen was unable to deliver four mains at the same time. The last meal came when everyone else was done. The food was great. The timing was terrible.

This place is great and we have been multiple times but the service tonight was terrible. We sat at the subway bar for over 15 minutes and watched the bartender serve 4 other people who came up after us. It’s a Friday night and its busy, perhaps there should be more than 1 person outside. Especially more than 1 inattentive, and maybe not high, person.

Have tried this place multiple times and each time the service has been well below average … we kept trying to give it another chance, but it seems that there needs to be a very in depth customer service training for this staff.
No one checking in on customers. No one coming to take your order. Multiple people around us asking if we have had anyone help us both inside and outside because no one helped them. Standing for 25+ minutes waiting to close a tab right at the bar and can’t get anyone to close us out.
Food was good the one time we actually were able to get someone to take our order.
Unfortunately, I don’t think we will try this spot again.

Food was decent, but $10 for the same size hotdog I can get at Costco for $1.50 is insane to me. I do enjoy the drinks

I love this place! Great spot for casual dining / hanging outside / live music. Family friendly. I do wish there were more vegetarian options, but they at least offer several vegetarian (and delicious) dips as well as a cheese pizza.

A little of the beaten path but worth the stop. Great food, wide variety of craft beer. Nice casual environment.

Kid-friendliness: Kids can run around, there is an outside area and I believe I saw games.

Great spot with outside seating and dog-friendly, but our experience was sub-par.
We visited on a Sunday afternoon. We sat outside waiting for table service for over 10 minutes. After we flagged someone down we were gruffly told to order at the bar. There wasn't a sign indicating the lack of a waiter for outside, and the attitude of the staff towards us for asking was inappropriate.
When our food arrived, my order was missing the coleslaw. I had to go inside to get it. The other food items were fine and the taste was good.
While we ate, we watched 3 employees who had plenty of time to hang out with each other outside near the bar, but no time to take our order at our table or even check to see if we needed anything. Staffing should be evaluated for Sunday afternoons. Signage should be implemented if there is no wait staff available.

Kid-friendliness: There is a green area where kids can play.
