Kelly, has amazing customer service. She is professional and very friendly. Hard worker, I highly recommend her as server and Public and General great food.on the 10/17/25 I did another visit Food is great and the waitress Summer, she help us out she have great energy, professional Who is very friendly always laughing she’s a great worker. I highly recommend her. Thank you.
It's more like a bar than a restaurant. There's no table service. The waitress is nota conversationalist by any means. Do not order a cheeseburger and expect it to be done. They serve them raw AKA medium rare. You must request them to be done the way you want them or you will get blood all over your food. Fair warning. Especially if you bring children in and order a cheeseburger

The fried tomato sandwich was good. I liked the goat cheese butter. The fries were not edible. Overly salty and hammered.

The hostess was very friendly and nice, she suggested a “buffalo chicken sandwich” and “Dill fries” which was fantastic!

Fantastic lunch place,
So glad we stopped here! The waitress mistakenly delivered the polenta appetizer to us, but when I tried to bring it back they said to keep it for free, their mistake. These were by far the most delicious tidbits, with a perfectly paired sauce. Shared the BLT which came with a nice ceasar salad. Perfect amount of food for 2.

I really enjoyed the ceaser salad and fries while my significant other loved the pasta. Atmosphere was great, but it was quite noisy. Maybe it’s not always that way, or maybe if we sat outside the vibe would have been different. Just was a bit more rambunctious than what we were looking for for a quiet date night. Definitely would return, especially with friends after work to have a cheese plate and some wine!
