Had a fun night of drinks, playing pool and talking to the owner! Will definitely be back! (Didn’t order any food but will next time.)

We have been back many times since our first visit! Love First Place! Nick, Angie and Brook (bartenders) are the best! Food is great (get the mac & cheese)! This is now our number one place! (Or should I say, our First Place!) 🙃

All I can say is THIS PLACE DID NOT DISAPPOINT !! The mozzarella sticks are SO good. I have never had such a good mozerella stick! Then we had saganaki!!! Omg!! Who would have thought that a sports bar had such amazing food!!!! For my main, I ordered the Greek chicken and a pita and holy cow! Absolutely delicious and the service was just as good! The servers were very attentive!

Gave the food 3 stars only because there was only 1 vegan option... fries lol but the atmosphere was amazing and the vegan waitress was awesome! I forgot her name but she's a vegan babe! Love the pool tables and darts!
