We come here once per quarter usually on a Friday when there is the Music Walk. My husband likes the ribs and I prefer the Bison burger. The quality is consistent and portions are big. We will continue to come here once in a while. Service was friendly and fast. Atmosphere is fun and definitely looks like a lodge.
