Recent Reviews
We reserved a table on Thanksgiving ahead of time as our options were limited and we were visiting the area from out of state. I was a bit skeptical based on other reviews; however, our experience was very good. We enjoyed our food from menu options, had a couple great local beers at a “Happy Hour” price. Service was prompt and staff were friendly and helpful.
The food was, at best, okay. The sandwiches came out with too much mayo, which we hadn’t ordered. Neither sandwich was ordered with onions. The inside of the place was nice, though. The salad was really good.
We were greeted and seared quickly. The server, “I can't answer your question, I've only been here two days” response was challenging; our order was incorrect, not on the ticket but in the kitchen. Slow service overall, food was OK; I wouldn't have used a Roma tomato on a burger slides long ways, bread was dry. Could have offered a regular burger, all the extra stuff is, well, extra, to make it sloppy to eat.
