“First time here, but I was very impressed by the food and service. I'm trying to eat a more plant-based diet and the veggie quesadilla was not only delicious, but extremely satisfying and filling. One of a few places that actually have blue cheese stuffed olives for martinis! Will definitely stay here again!“

“I just read a story about these people went to eat and witness something was so totally wrong . A trooper came into this restaurant and was refused service. All these was based on the owners feelings about the law enforcement. These men and women put thier life’s on the line to protect everyone including you Mr. Owner. This puts a bad taste in my mouth about the owner , not the restaurant. This owner has good people working for him and they do make good food. However I will never go to this restaurant ever again. All this happened two hours after the Bristol’s policeman was killed on duty.“

“Just had a big grill an bang bang chicken absolutely delicious give it a try“

“First time here. Service was excellent but food was mediocre. Burger was ok. Fries were not fresh. You could tell they were frozen. Pickles were really good.“

“The Brussels sprouts absolutely stole the show—rich with cheese and brown butter, they were perfection. While the pizza’s flavor and cheese were spot-on, the execution fell short. It could have used more time in the oven, as it lacked structure and tended to collapse forward with each bite. Delicious taste, but the texture left me wanting more.

“I haven't been there for probably twenty years. My ex wife's grandmother would take us there. I decided to bring my almost adult children there. A very old school restaurant. You get the choice of soup af the day or salad. I was a little apprehensive ordering the chicken marsala. Many times I have let down eating it without the marsala flavor. I know how to cook. The wine has to be reduced by 3/4 to get the taste. I asked the waiter if they did indeed reduce it. He told me yes. I wasn't disappointed with my selection. My son ordered a New York strip. Me was satisfied. I was happy to see his hony mustard was only used for his fries. My daughter ordered something Italian. Not sure what it was, but it was like 3 servings. A restaurant that has been in business for many years. This tells me that they are doing something right, as with our dinner.“

“Great service and food. Plenty of choices for all you can eat sushi, apps, and fried ice cream 🤩“

“My wife had the Prime Rib special and absolutely loved it. The portion was perfect and came with side salad as well as the potato and vegetables. I had wings and a garden salad and had half of both for lunch the next day. Prices for both meals was on point. We will definitely be back again soon.“

“Came for bday brunch reservation with a group of 8. Food and drinks were delicious! Loved the Sugar Cookie Martini, Jalea Roll and rice bowl. Service was a little slow, considering we were one of few tables on a Sunday afternoon. Music was super loud, but that's the vibe.“

“Awesome food, great pizza, and fun atmosphere!“

“Absolutely love this place.. Great atmosphere, food and staff! Love the outside dining option. I will be back for football season for sure!“

“Everything was amazing and our server was GREAT!“

“This is hands down the best Chili’s I’ve ever been to. The teamwork here is next-level—servers jump in to help each other out and check on tables even if they’re not their own. The food is always on point, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. You can really tell they care about the guest experience.“
