Pretty good food and service! Unfortunately the place smelled of cigarette smoke and kind of ruined the experience.

Honestly not much was great about this place. The live music was fun, but the bar is not huge so it really echos a lot, literally our waitress had to yell to introduce herself. The food was subpar, the chicken quesadilla was meh, the French fries were great, the corner burger did not wow me and the lamb euro was dry, like with my girlfriend’s chicken euro. With the bar being relatively empty, we had to get up to go to the bar to order our food and pay, the service wasn’t great.

You must have the avocado burger with home chips that were crispy and served with a dipping sauce to die for.

Overall, not the best place I've eaten at. The bartender was very nice, and ended up taking my order off of the ticket for us. I had ordered a chicken gyro, and my boyfriend got a lamb one to go, and I ended up getting lamb.

The food in general is not very good, unless you're looking just to eat anything. The lamb was dry, the burger wasn't flavourful, as well as a little dry. The chicken quesodilla was alright. The only thing we found to be good were the fries.

They did have a band here which was wonderful, great talent. Made it a little too hard to hear the person in front of me though.

Again, not a good review. The staff was wonderful, the music was also great. Just not good food.

Certainly not the best burgers in town, but cooked perfectly. Fries were ok. Chips were burnt. Based on food alone, would not return.

Service was fine. No complaints, no issues.

Atmosphere left something to be desired. Smokers hanging out at the front door, with smoke blowing in when the door opened. Sticky floor, sticky tables, just not a place which seemed cared for.

Stopped in for lunch. Was very surprised that the inside was more dive bar atmosphere especially given the area that it's in. Place was run down inside. Roast beef sandwich was inedible with the hunks of fat running through the meat. Kids chicken tenders was a thick chicken breast, breaded and fried. Corn dogs were vienna sausages battered in cornbread. Table behind us also had to send back chicken wings so we weren't the only table having issues. Only good item on the table were the seasoned fries. Waitress was nice and accommodating and the chef offered to cook something new but we were running out of time.

There were three adults and two children in our party. We were the only table there. The table upon arrival was covered in food and we wiped it down, the server just placed the menus on the table. We were asked if we wanted a drink, I had water and she walked away…my husband wanted beer, she came back ten minutes later and asked if he wanted something. Our food was ordered and the kids food came first, which was ok, two burgers were ordered, one medium, one medium well, the medium well burger came out next, then after that was delivered my salad came five minutes later then we were told the medium burger would be a couple of minutes…that turned into ten minutes. The rest of us were almost done eating when I had to ask the waitress if she could check on the burger….she was on her phone the whole time we were in there. We also had to get our own silverware and we didn’t get drink refills, the burger that was medium that took a total of fifteen minutes longer came out medium well also….first off..people go to dinner to eat together, not staggered. Second, how does a medium well burger come out before a medium burger? This was our first time here and will be our last. I have been a server and a restaurant manager and the owners should really take a look at this review and I agree with some other reviews, the inside definitely needs a makeover, the booths are cracked and it seems ran down, however good service and good food can over rule that any day….The fact that the server wasn’t concerned at all with how the food came out and only cared about sitting at the table on her cell phone says a whole lot. Of it had been busy, I understand an order being dropped, however, there wasn’t anyone else in there. The server could’ve at least stood in the kitchen on her phone. A good server would’ve been more concerned with her customers than her phone. Very disappointing and not at all worth the $70 bill.
