Only real issues were the near flavorless mac and cheese and the broccoli lying in water. Gotta drip dry that broccoli. Everybody knows that. Staff was good, though. Friendly and fast. Next time I'll try the pizza. Dave Portnoy can't be everywhere. 😈

Waiters talked while food was needing to be brought, we had to go grab it ourselves. Food still yummy

I love my hometown bar and grill! Food is top notch! Love their wood fired pizzas, outdoor dining, the best staff, etc! Make sure to visit this place often. There are so many good things on the menu to choose from. 6 out of 5 stars!!!

Good was slightly undercooked. Waitress never came around. Atmosphere was average for a bar and grill.

Would be great to order anything on the menu at any time... Having no ability to order bread/pizza items when the fair is going on is beyond ridiculous.

I have had good luck here before, but not on this visit. Went with 5 people and took 1.5 hours to get meal. Several patrons came after us and left well before we were served. One excuse was that we were pushed back since French Onion soup was ordered, but it was not available. We just canceled it with no replacement, so that should not have added any time. Food was decent when is did finally arrive, but this was ridiculous.

Went here for dinner with some coworkers while in town for a work trip. I wish we had gone somewhere else. Our experience was awful. Our server was fine, however it took over an hour to get our food. We were also trying to understand how there were people who arrived much later than we did, and got their food way before we did. When we finally did get our food, it was not good. I ordered the traditional horseshoe, and let me just say this is not the place to order one. The meat was dried up and part of my fries were cold. My co worker ordered a salad with maple bacon vinaigrette and it was absolutely disgusting. Also I never understand restaurants that when it’s a slow night, somehow the service is terrible. That experience was enough that I would not come back.

This is our 3rd visit & the service could not be worse. Today the restaurant wasn't much cooler than it was outside.(91 outside) Each visit the order has been wrong with no adjustment. It took 25-+ minutes to get a server to wait on us and overall more than 2.5 hours. While the food can be good, I don't think we'll be back. It's a shame. I want to patronize local places. This took place on a Wednesday evening around 5pm.

I asked for a special Calzone that was not on the menu, and they were willing to make it. Absolutely great service from the staff and kitchen.

Every time I come the food is great, vibes are positive, and service is excellent. I had the pleasure of being served by Natani and she made the experience 10x better!! She was kind, fast, and accurate. Would come back just because of her!

Judging from the name, I expected more ambiance. Instead, we found concrete floors ( and the echo that goes with them) and bar tables and chairs. The food was good, the portions were large, the employees were cheerful and helpful, and we all left full and happy. It just wasn't what I expected.
