The food is simple, yet incredibly tasty. I had the pleasure of being accompanied by Keir and his service was fabulous. He’s also an amazing leader for his staff while remaining cool, calm and collected. Huge shoutout to him, I can’t wait to be back!

Probably the worst place I've ever had the misfortune of experiening. Service is so bad. Took almost an hour to even order drinks and we we're never even asked if we wanted food which we did do we finished our drinks and went up the road to a better spot that we had immediate and great service at. What is going on here? This was unbelievably bad.

Waited almost an hour for anyone to take our orders. 55 mins to get some beers and shots. Then no one ever came back to take our food orders. Staff all seems like they hate their lives... the vibe here is really bad. All we had were beers and shots so can't comment on the food other than the fruit tray at the bar that the staff were snacking on while we were waiting for service looked good lol. Especially the chick who was putting tajin on cucumber slices shoving them in her mouth and then dipping her dirty fingers back into the fruit and veg tray that go on everyone's drinks. This place is gross and weird /bad vibes.

Anna is an amazing bartender. She takes the time to get to know those at her bar and provides the best customer service.

Went in and got the whiskey cocktail special, apparently that doesn't include old fashions-which are cocktails. The special actually means mixed drinks or single ingredient beverages. Totally scuzzy and misleading.

Great spot for football Sundays! We came with 6 friends and a baby and had an awesome time. Our server was super attentive even with a packed crowd, and food/drinks came out fast. The hot honey chicken sandwich was tasty (not too spicy), and there are plenty of TVs so you won’t miss a game. Perfect mix of good food, great service, and fun atmosphere.

Absolutely abysmal service by Brooke. Took over 45 minutes to get our first trough of 10 drinks to our table. There’s absolutely no way that it should take 45 minutes to have 10 cans put on ice and brought to a table. Every table in her section was served twice before we were served. We had to ask 3 times before it came it us. Understandable for 10-15 minute delay when busy but 45 minutes is just ridiculous. Our second through was brought out by what we assume is the manager and that only took 10 minutes. Unfortunately the drinks were wrong but I guess beggars can’t be choosers. We’ve been here 2 hours now and she’s been to our table 3 times 😆
We asked to have the tv changed to college football, for the start of college football seemed like a reasonable request. No dice on that. Definitely will not be back.

We had a GREAT evening with Chelsea as our host. We reserved the Rose Room for our 14 guests and Chelsea did an amazing job catering to all our needs. The food staff did a great job bringing all our food out at the same time. Amazing for 14 people. Can’t say enough about Chelsea and her team. Very impressed with the service and quality of food and drinks. This place is a must visit. We will definitely be back on our next trip to Chicago. Thank you
Great spot to watch a game! Love the energy during football season! Highly recommend the wings and truffle Parmesan fries.
