I heard about the wings special so I called in an order to try them. When I went to pay, the waitress said the discount was for dine-in only so I had to sit down, eat a couple, then ask for a to-go container and pay my check. Does management know that these questions should be asked when placing an order? Does the staff understand their choice of words are heard by other guests? Politeness goes a long ways.

We love this place! Great food and great service! Reasonable prices. Lots of options for vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. It is also a great place to catch a good game (and they show plenty of women’s sports). It is the perfect modernized take on a friendly neighborhood restaurant and bar.

Good food great service some of the worst acoustics I've ever experienced in a restaurant. Couldn't even hear what the people across from the table were saying.

Incredible!! I got the chicken Philly, my friend the pepper jack chicken sandwich. The flavors were bold yet well blended. Chicken was tender, bread fresh. Seriously one of the best sandwiches I have had. Fries crispy yet soft. Highly recommend.

Great place, good food. It's a little loud, though. Voices echo and resonate, making small crowds seem overly large and noisy. Could use some noise damping. Otherwise, it's a great place, good food and great service. Highly recommend.
