We visited on 1/7/26 to celebrate our friend’s birthday and had a great time. The food was wonderful as always. The atmosphere was fun and I have to shout out our server Justin. Justin was attentive and knowledgeable but, his friendly attitude and smile were definitely what put our dining experience over the top. Kudos Justin.

Went at night to grab a drink because no other bars were open. They had a $5 cover because there was a DJ. It was pretty dead until midnight when I guess other bars closed or the service crowd from other places came. Sticky floors. Vibe was kind of weird cause it didn’t have a ton of people. I could see this being a place people get in fights a lot. Wanna be club music type bar vibe and good for that.

We haven't been since the expansion - they did a wonderful job! And the original restaurant is still in tact in all its eclectic glory. The food is still amazing and the service phenomenal.

I would like to start with the positives. Our server Kanisia was a great server though the management probably will never appreciate the hard work she puts in. I make that statement because I saw her work, she had no help with all the patrons she had even though I seen many places in the restaurant where there was too many employees at same task. She never got any orders wrong and never let on how monumental her task was. She was the most positive thing I can remark on our visit there. We waited over 90 minutes for our entrees. Yes the place was packed for it being off season but the kitchen dropped the ball. In our party of 8 we all got our dinners at different times and one in our party didn't get their dish till 15 minutes after the rest of us. It was Chicken Parm, no excuse for a simple staple item. She brought them out as they were ready in the kitchen and for the amount of employees I saw in kitchen there really wasn't any reason for such a delay. Unfortunately for me my meal was the worse one. Everyone's meal was satisfactory which were more complicated then mine. I ordered a Greek Salad, seems pretty easy entree to prepare correct? I got a garden salad with a small sprinkling of feta cheese and 5 olives. I didn't even get Romaine! I got white & yellow iceberg which we allow know has no flavor. And I don't understand the 15 minute delay from the time hot entrees were delivered.
I try to always see the positives in life so that I leave fair reviews but from having to walk thru dirt piles that the sweeper left in direct center of walkway thru the restaurant to all of the employees having all the prime parking near the restaurant, the only good thing was like I said the server. I shudder to think what the experience is like during high season!
