“Love love LOVE! My family (party of 8) recently came and dined in. We had two children with us. The customer service was phenomenal. They made us feel right at home and offered alternatives for the children. I have never been more impressed with food and service by any restaurant, anywhere. Thank you so much for welcoming us in and treating us like family. Food recommendations- We loved the Brussel sprouts appetizer and the Italian beef egg rolls. Entree favorites included the chicken parmigiana and the Italian pillows. Every item on the menu tasted unique and intentional.“

“Mission taco has amazing food but their margaritas are the BEST in town. The arcade is a great addition!! The wait staff is always friendly and fun. ❤️“

“My wife and I went out for a date night and had the best time at 360. Really cool atmosphere and vibe. We had Phil as our bartender who was excellent really made the experience fun for us. He was able to make us standard cocktails off the menu as well as a custom cocktail for my wife based off her requests. He was attentive when needed without being in the way. The burger we had was really good as well. If you go to 360 ask for Phil as your bartender 10/10“

“Seen great reviews for this place & thought I'd give it a try. I was looking for a place not too far from where I live with a great atmosphere. This place was it. Cozy backyard with string lights, great food /drinks & a live acoustic band. Loved all of it. Will definetly be back soon!🩷“

“This little dive bar is so adorable. There were a couple of pups there which i loved. But im not sure if dogs are allowed so they might have been service dogs. The bartender was very nice and i even got "gonged" for being a first timer. It sucks they dont serve food. But the regulars there were very nice and welcoming. There is a touch tunes juke box available. Only down side is that there is smoking allowed inside. But i will definitely be back because it was a great experience.“

“Friendliest hidden gem EVER. Fun, loving clientelle! Go Dream Factory Team!!“

“Tony and family always make you feel like family. From his table side presence and his beautiful mother leading an amazing team in the kitchen. Anthony our server was great and knowledgeable of all the dishes. We started with the calamari and fried spinach and a perfectly spiced marinara sauce. We each had the separate salads I had the Italian chop salad, and my girl had the Caprese salad both were absolutely amazing. I had the Benedetto's Farfalle with spicy pink sauce and added shrimp 🤌we also had the perfectly cooked and breaded Chicken Spiedini served over risotto. Timing is everything when you have multiple dishes everything was perfectly prepared.. 🤌🤌🤌🍷“

“Best Fine Dining Restaurant😀😀😀“

“We had my niece’s 25th birthday here and I was a fabulous party. We asked for Becky to serve us which she always does with exuberant smiles and attention. Matt, Satchmo’s owner, was here and mingled with us like any bar/restaurant should. As a chef, this tells me volumes of how he runs his establishment. I religiously order the pork green chili(which is phenomenal) and the fish and chips were to die for, exactly how I like it. This place is the quintessential neighborhood bar!“

“When I walked in, I realized the place was packed, but we were hoping the wait wasn't too long, they quoted 45 minutes, which was a little too long for us. There was 5 of us and we decided to sit at the bar. And I'm sure glad we did. We had a bartender, I forgot her name, but she had purple hair, she was the absolute best. Not only did she make amazing drinks, she made sure our food came out right and hot. She also entertained us the whole time we were there, by engaging in conversations. You don't see that very much these days. If there was a word better than perfect, that's how I would describe it. I'll definitely be sitting at the bar more often.“
