Food was good but a took long. None of the appetizers were available, just chips and salsa so we skipped. There was 6 of us so we were charged a convenience fee and automatically were charged a 20% tip, which we did NOT know would happen or agree with. We understand a 10-15% automatic tip for parties 6+ but not 20%—- plus a convenience fee? Our 6 party bill came to well over $100 for no appetizers and water that wasn’t even refilled. The server was nice but I don’t think the business should be doing a convenience fee and automatic tip, then request AN ADDITIONAL tip.
Reuben was 7.5/10, BLT didn’t taste like anything but bacon. Mac and cheese had mushrooms in it and was a 7/10. Fries were 8/10. Burgers were 8/10. Overall it was not worth $20+ each person.

Sunday brunch food is good. However, a noon they turned up the music so loud that no one could each other speak. Including the waitress taking our order. And for some unknown reason the music was thumping club music which makes zero sense for Sunday brunch. Asked to have it turned back to the volume it was prior until noon and was told “no”. We won’t be back.

Our Home Dad Con happy hour was held here, we had a few drinks and apps. Both were really good. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Cost was included in the conference, however I assume it is about $7 - $15 per drink based on other bars in the area.

You could not PAY me to come here again. The staff were so disrespectful and rude and the food was the worst I’ve ever had. I was so excited for o try this place out but this has made me never want to go back. I will never recommend this place and over all they should be ashamed.

My friends and I came to this location on Saturday after a photoshoot. We were recommended this place because their sister restaurant down the road was packed. The customer service was horrible. We sat at the bar and they barely acknowledged us. We had to consistently flag down a bar tender to receive assistance but they were consistently checking on other patrons around us. The buss boy knocked a drink over on my $600 fanny pack and literally said NOTHING! I had to ask for a napkin and he threw a towel in front of me like I was supposed to clean up what he spilled. When we asked for a manager, they acted like they couldn’t find the manager. I cancelled my food order on the spot. You will never get a dollar out of me with that horrible customer service. Never again.
We went here on a weeknight before a Cardinals game. The place wasn't crowded (weeknight), which is good for talking. We watched the Olympics while we waited for our food. The food was good. We got our bill, and there was an $.80 cent charge for a "convenience fee." I asked the waitress what the fee was for. She said, "It's for eating outside the stadium." What!?!? Then she said, "She's not really sure what the charge is for." We paid the bill in CASH, and I went over to a different employee and asked about the convenience fee. He said it's for using a debit or credit card. I said we paid in cash. He said, "She should have taken that off the bill." He spoke with the waitress and came back to us. He said she would refund the change in a few minutes because she's with a table right now. We waited a little bit but chalked it up to another fee charged by a business that was passed onto the consumer and went to the game. And that's all I'm going to say about that.

Good restaurant, seems like a great place to catch a game. Located really close to the stadium. Portions are pretty huge!

Didn’t try the food, went to the bathroom after hanging out in the back deck with live music, some dude wanted $20 when we tried to go back out. Not about it frankly.

Honestly I really liked it as a first timer. Me and my family went in at around 7/8ish to eat dinner. We weren’t sure whether to seat ourselves or to wait, so we sat down in a none reserved table (sorry to the waitress, we weren’t sure). We were greeted pretty quickly by our waitress with cups of waters for everyone. She was super nice, and always checking in on us, and taking our orders, along with answering the many of questions about the food. The Mac n cheese was SOOOOO GOOD. My family got burgers and nacho fries with some appetizers which they all enjoyed very much. It was loud inside, obviously because it was a bar but that wasn’t a problem at all. Outside there was a band doing live music which was amazing! Would come back 100%

Fantastic food! Enjoyed several items from the menu. Can't really go wrong with your selections. Nice atmosphere. Ample TVs. Solid seating surfaces. Cushioned seating would have been nice. Amazing overall.
