We barely got waited on and our food took forever! It also wasn't very good. The waitress was friendly but we barely saw her. The atmosphere itself was great though. I'm an experienced cook looking for a job BTW!

The food here is good and the people who work here are nice and work really hard, but (and this is a BIG but) prices on the receipt should reflect the prices in the menu. Management should change this. I was charged over $10 more for two adults and two kids than what I should have been charged. For instance, the two $7 kid's menu items magically turned into $10.50 menu items.Pretty upset at surprise charges at the end of my visit. This is a major no-no in any business.Not going back here because that is really shady business practice.Update your menus!Your staff is answering for an easy fix and it's making you all look bad.Honesty is not hard.

Good food and service.

Kind staff and sports bar tvs. Clean with a fun layout. I was appreciative of a few budget menu items, and the chili is traditional- no beans, just meat, spices, veggies and onion/cheese/crackers on the side.

For a little tucked away bar, they have great food. I really like the fish tacos. We also had some buffalo wings and a spicy guacamole burger. All the food was on point. The drinks were cold and refreshing too. I highly recommend stopping by for a bite.

We used to love this place. It has gone downhill the past couple of years. We went tonight and ordered nachos. You can’t mess that up right? Wrong. It was a bunch of chips slapped with Queso cheese, burnt ground beef, and burnt black beans. It didn’t even have the ingredients on it from the menu. We had everyone at our table try our food before we sent it back. They agreed it was the worst they have had for nachos. We sent it back and it was nice they reimbursed us, but the service was horrible. Our server decided to take a 25 minute smoke break and we had to ask another server to close us out. This place hires awful people from cooks to servers. We made the decision that we will never be going back after giving them multiple try’s.

Good bar food and good beer selection. The seating is basic booths and tables. Good for a casual dining experience.

Came in late, kitchen was closing down. We sat at the bar and when the bartender realized we were there to eat she pleasantly asked the cook if he'd be cool cooking one last meal. He agreed with no delay. Burger was good, fries were great. Beers were cold.

Chaos. 2 bartenders and one server for the whole restaurant. 20 min to get a beer. Another 25 min before we were asked if we wanted to order food. Want to see them succeed, but they need to figure out how manage the flow

Met up with a half-dozen friends during Happy Hour tonight. I had never heard of the place before, let alone been there. We all had beer or wine, which was fairly priced. Everyone really liked their food, which included a mac & cheese with bacon, Cuban sandwich with tots, Cobb Salad, fries, beef tacos. The server got a bit flustered over operating the restaurant's handheld electronic ordering device (or whatever the hell they're called), especially when it came time for us all to pay, but he was otherwise super-friendly and attentive. Terrific laid-back and comfy atmosphere. I'm sure I'll be back.
