“I visited the establishment today to have a meal. I ordered their wings and a grilled buffalo chicken wrap. The food was delicious. We chose to sit outside due to the pleasant weather. Unfortunately, we were seated next to an individual who was having a loud phone conversation. It would have been preferable if he had taken the call elsewhere. Despite this inconvenience, the restaurant was quite busy and the food was served hot and fresh.“

Our waitress Charlie was excellent, personality on point, I wanna throw her in the take home bag as well hahaha. We had to ask to speak to the manager to tell them how much we love it and he comped our desert! 5 stars all the way!!!! Can we move here so it’s closer lol. Thank you guys ?“

“My wife and I stopped for lunch. We love the atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. Our waitress Breanna was absolutely delightful. She was so friendly and did a terrific job. We highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back!!!“

“To start with, I love the thick menu! I love that they give the back stories on the local products/farms they use. And the plethora of options make certain that both my husband and I can find something we like no matter what we're in the mood for. It's also nice to go to a restaurant that has more than the same 6 things everybody else has and to know those items are made with locally sourced products. I can end with a cupcake made from scratch which also supports another small business instead of something premade from the same manufacturer everyone sources their desserts from. It's a win for me!“

“Great Local place! Great food & service“

“I was at a get-together at this restaurant and the food was good. I ordered the delmonico 22oz steak and a side of vegetables. 22oz wasn't the largest steak on the menu, but steak was the main option. The steak was cooked well. The service was fast and good. The waitresses were fast to provide refills. This was a very good stoo.“
