This is the second time we went to this place. Both times the food was delicious and the service was excellent. They seem to have a young staff that is courteous and friendly. Was tried surf and turf filet mignon with fried chicken shrimp and it was great. Also tried their lettuce bulgogi wrap with spicy aioli sauce and it tasted fabulous. The margarita was right on the money and the hard pineapple cider hit the spot! We were there on a Friday night with live music so it was fun. Their prices are very reasonable and we're could pay the invoice online with a mobile app. Will go back again.

The food was AWFUL I asked for bbq tenders and couldn’t taste a thing of bbq. The cauliflower is absolutely disgusting, my friend and her mom couldn’t even swallow it. The bare tender was basically running the place while the manager sat down like a fatty eating his worm looking food. This place is so over priced and it’s ridiculous. They’re all so rude. The bartender even came over to our table and said she had to ask the manager to take one of the orders from the table. She was also rude as well when we asked when our order would be out meanwhile this It had been 30 min. She went behind the counter and the manager said “we’ll we haven’t cooked it yet.” They’re soooo un professional I don’t reccomend this place at all!!!

Panko chicken tenders gives an excellent adult spin to this kid favorite! Really yummy! Can't wait to try the putine!

Will give it another try and hope to give it more stars. Steak was undercooked, taco beef was unbelievably dry as were the soft tortillas, tasted like they were sitting under a warming light for a half hour.

Nice atmosphere, friendly staff, price/quality ratio is right and new (to me) place to go if I want a little entertainment without a crazy crowd. They have an event calendar on their website, I suggest take a look before you go, (I prefer live music than a trivia night) Good for groups and friends but not for a romantic date or families with young children. Menu is not a long list but they have variety of food for everyones taste, burger to poke bowl, pork to vegetarian. Street parking is available (paid until 8pm)

4 stars don’t come easy but compared to our expectations this evening was a treat. The service was friendly and the food much better than you would get at a tavern. The music was loud but a nice assortment of old favorites from a competent cover group.

Video bingo is super annoying. Took a long time to take food order. NOT vegan friendly. Potatoes tasted like tap water. No advertised "garnish topper" on Bloody Mary. Disappointing overall brunch experience. Won't be back.

My sister and I enjoyed our dinners and drinks. Our server, Ben was very nice. The food was delicious. We will go back for sure.

Very good, pleasant waitress and drinks were good. Had chicken Marsala, good but to salty for my taste. Drinks were good so was the desert.

Writing this a good 6 months after they opened. My first impressions were “Outstanding”. Food was great, service was good, not outstanding. But when a new place opens like this there are growing pains. And the entertainment vibe is awesome. The entertainment vibe remains awesome, but like many I am disappointed the service issues seem to be getting worse…not better. Last time in it took over 20 minutes to have a wait person take our drink order. After another 15 minutes my wife noticed the drinks at the wait station at the bar and went up and got them. The waitstaff was very friendly, but it appears they lack experience. And the comments about the bar service being slow are fair. These place live off the mark up on booze. The opportunity cost here has to be huge I really want this place to succeed: good food, neat vibe, live entertainment, reasonable prices, and great specials. But someone with the power to fix things needs to read tue comments on service and address them if they want this place to succeed as much as I do. Willing to stick with them and watch the improvement that I am sure will come as Covid winds down.

The bartenders were slooooooooowwwww.They almost seemed comatose. Now and again they would come to the end of the bar where we sat and even then, barely acknowledged us. WE had to ask them. At first, we thought it was us. But it was the trend all across the packed bar. We were there for three hours and would have drank - and $pent more! - had they hustled even a little. It seems like they did not want to be there. Zero enthusiasm.I ordered a chicken Parmesan sandwich. It tasted like rubber. I could not finish. The fries were COVERED in salt.n When I explained this to the woman bartender, she did not care.I was not looking for a refund - and am not a ‘foodie.’ My bar is low. I was just pointing out bad food. No response. Nothing. Again, lack of enthusiasm. Why are miserable people working in the service industryI had high hopes for this place. Appears the negative buzz is accurate.Thursday night 12/30 was the night we went.

Great new spot in Beverly, something different! Tried 3 apps; fried shrimp, fried Barratta, and eggplant sliders. Great flavor on all. The French onion soup was also very good. Live music and good beer selection. Will be back.

Stopped by while waiting for my son to arrive to begin moving into a nearby apartment. The bartender was very friendly and helpful, the beer selection good. A band was beginning to set up when we had to leave to help with the move. Looking forward to going back.

? Friendly and personable staff. Excellent service. Unique and delicious apps and entrées. Portions were large, but not MAMMOTH . ??
