Melanie was an absolute rockstar behind the bar! She was on time, super attentive, and gave me exactly what I needed without missing a beat. On top of that, she had a great sense of humor and kept the vibe fun the entire time. It’s always a good day when you have a bartender like Melanie—professional, quick, and genuinely entertaining. Highly recommend!

Food was good. Service was horrid. We were there before it got busy and had to find someone to place an order...and when someone came to the table, they would get a drink order for one or two and walk away ignoring the others.

Melany was the best! She’s aware of your needs and is constantly checking up on you making sure you are taken care of, but in an amiable way - not in an awkward way. There is no shortage of hospitality when it comes to her!
