Cool little sports bar with good food options and a good selection of craft beer that rotates.

An okay local hangout. Food was good. Waitress was great. We ate on their patio. I didn't 'think' it was legal to smoke at food establishments? It's the reason we won't be back.

We went for a post ultrmarathon meal. One of the servers went out of his way to help us and the other house staff pitched in too.

Overall the experience was alright. Service started out very slow and there weren’t many tables in the restaurant. The service was better after that. The pictures and descriptions made the food seem very promising. For the price, you get a good portion of food so you can’t complain too much. Mostly everything other than fries and mashed potatoes were under-seasoned. Brisket is not like what you get at a barbecue place: It was very thin and a lot of fat. The mashed potatoes were tasty. The jalepeno Mac and cheese had 2 tiny pieces of jalepeno and not spicy at all. It was also super greasy. Garlic parm wings were crispy but you couldn’t tell them had any seasoning on them. I was pretty disappointed overall with the food. Not sure I would try again.

The one in Wake Forest is much better in terms of both food and service. One dish our party ordered, the chicken was burnt. Someone else ordered the chili and a salad. If it's written on the menu we missed it...that the chili has alcohol... we do not drink alcohol. When the person tasted the chili it had a weird taste, so they allowed someone else to try it and they said it tasted like alcohol to them. When I asked the waitress if there was alcohol in the chili she said "No." Long story short, she came back and said it did have alcohol. No apology, or anything. They did allow us to order something different but had to wait a long time for it, so we just got it to go. Someone could have shared their chili with a child, or they could be a recovering alcoholic. ?We will stick with the one in WF.

Food wasn't good. The meatballs taste like sausage and the tuna is chewy but Liz is awesome and the vibe is cool. Tvs everywhere you turn. Great place to watch the game.
