Came to grab a quick bite on our way out of town! Nina took great care of us and grabbed us drinks right away. The meat in the french dip was quite a bit tough but the overall flavor was there. Definitely worth a return trip!

This is a great restaurant! Awesome interior design and layout! They have really good food! The Buffalo chicken sandwich and French fries were very good! This was the first restaurant we went to on this trip. The service could have been better, it was a bit slow. The slow service would absolutely not stop me from coming back here again though. I highly recommend this restaraunt to anyone in the area, or to anyone in the area!

This is a real neat place to eat, the atmosphere is great. The fosmod is typical tavern style, super happy with it. Definitely get the fried portabello mushroom fries. The tavern club could have used just a little less mayo and the side of handcur fries are excellent. Would go back.
