My favorite local bar to hangout. The good is great for the price and so are the portion sizes, which is really for 2. Bartenders are really friendly as is the owner. I come here at least 1 afternoon a week to work since I work from home. Lots of TVs to watch sports.

Great place to eat!! We had a large group of people eating on the patio, the service was fast and attentive and the food was amazing!! The portions of food match the name, big! We have returned couple times since and have never been disappointed. Try the appetizer sampler, you will love it!
