“We live in the area, and this is our favorite place. The food is always good - burgers are flavorful, rice bowls are good, love the fried green beans, fries are the best in town. The beer selection is great as there is always a good representation of different kinds as they rotate beers in and out. The remodeled outdoor patio is beautiful! And the servers always seem like they enjoy their job. Tanelle is a gem; we always feel lucky when she comes to our table. Great place! Go there!”

“I've been patronizing this bar for three years now. I'm a hole in the wall bar type of person. I love this place. the bartenders are top notch and so friendly. it doesn't take them long at all to know you and your drink. customers are always friendly and quick with a joke or to laugh with you. I now stop for one beer on my way home from work each night (yes, sometimes more then one), and the bartenders always have my drink open and ready before I even sit down. can't recommend a better place!”
