Nice setting and service and food were good. Wife had the salmon (looked a little overcooked) and I had a huge salad (very generous and well done).

We’ve ordered a bunch of times for pick up and everything is always perfect, no order mistakes or missing items. I’ve eaten in once and the food was equally as good, our waitress was great. It’s definitely a sports bar, TV’s all around, multiple sports going on different screens. It was loud but not overbearing and I’d definitely go back to eat in. Cannot comment on drinks because I only had water with my meal.

Ill start by saying almost all the 5 star reviews have Got to be payed for lmao...told host my guest was here already, his response was to look back down at his table and say "ok, go ahead and look around"... not a professional greeting for a first time customer, i felt soo special..waitress wasnt the best, but we all have off days, so ill look past that as she wasnt rude to us in any way. Ordered the pastrami on pretzle roll, and it was almost entirely fat and no meat. I ate half of it to just give it a try and it wasnt even recognizable as pastrami let alone meat. Ive worked in food service, so i knew returning it wasnt an option as who knows what will be done to it.. so i had drinks and tried to make the best of the night. After my guest finished we moved to the bar, what a fail! At 930ish pm on a Friday they turned off literaly ever light in restaurant except the bar, couldnt see where i was walking on way to bathroom ( probably due to cheap owner wanting to cut cost in his failing business, Huge insurance risk) ... bartender had the personality of wet slice of bread. I left the restaurant and couldn't even drive away as i was hit with the worst stomach pains and burst into a sweat... needless to say that pile of puke in your driveway is my review in a nutshell... what a Dump! After reading these reviews im very happy i didnt ask for owner or manager... i work too hard for my money to listen to someone defend their establishment instead of chalking it up to a lose and trying to make my night better...so happy i avoided that. The owner, from his review responses alone, seems like a person to avoid!

Whew! The ambiance is completely different than what is displayed on online. When I first walked in the air smells of old cigarette and mold. Poor air circulation. I came on a Friday around 4 PM less of a crowd. I ordered six piece garlic, Parmesan chicken wings with a side of beer battered onion rings. The chicken was unseasoned, overcooked and slathered with some weird Parmesan sauce.I hate two pieces, hoping maybe the first wing was terrible but the second wing was terrible too so I couldn’t continue. The onion rings were the best part of the meal besides the drink. This place is more like a dive bar than anything. Just happen to be located in Watertown Connecticut. Oh yeah, come here if you dare to waste money. No happy hour menu.

Loud, bare bones sports bar. TVs abound with very loud sound blaring the plays and commentary, even in the “dining room”. Food was just ok as was the wait staff. Prices were decent. Just not our thing.

Placed a takeout order with family. Everything was ready upon arrival. First time ordering here and no disappointment. Generous portions and food tasted fresh! Items ordered: chicken tacos, Caesar salad with chicken, classic Mac n cheese, and a grilled cheese. Nothing fancy, but definitely felt satisfied with plenty of leftovers. I hope I get to try dining in the next time!

We came with a group of 12... a spur-of-the moment thing, but they handled it with aplomb. All the meals came out together in a timely manner and were very good. Only complaint was that since it was an older group, the serving sizes were too big. ?
Wheelchair accessibility: Good!

We visited tonight to watch the Stanley cup and there wasn't a hostess so we walked to the bar area where we maybe stood for a couple minutes. The waiter approached with "what are you guys doing". First red flag. We responded with just looking for a place to sit to which she responded to "just sit". The rest of our 40 minutes were filled with eye rolls and attitude. We were going to stay and order food but because of Jennifer’s attitude we looked for an alternative location. Hopefully the service at this place turns around because Jennifer C didn't even notice we ordered our tab while we were leaving that's how much of a terrible waiter she was. If you are in the customer service industry please learn how to treat customers or find a different job.

First time. Food was very good, service excellent. Limited menu. Tried the stuffed onion rings as an appetizer, pleasantly surprised. We will be back

Place was busy, so my friend and I ate at the bar. Definite "biker" vibe making us think a fight was going to break out any second.Beer was good, food was good, tab was questionable, and when I called after to see if I left something behind that I misplaced they don't answer their phone.Might go back, might not.It was "Triple Play" last year.Probably be something else next year.Nothing gained or lost going here.
I always get a salad. Generous portion and delicious.
I love this place! They always make great food and I'm never disappointed
