Ordered the knuckle sandwich to go, it was super delicious as were the sweet potato fries. The ladies inside were very sweet and helpful. Definitely recommend!!

#1 restaurant to take the kids! We always feel welcome and well taken care of. This time was special because we had Daniella as our server. She greeted us with a warm welcome that was genuine, knew how to expedite the meal so the kids were taken care of but we didn’t feel rushed. Thank you!

I got a ultra thin crust margarita pizza I ended up getting a cardboard like bread with cheap cheese no sauce and cold chopped tomatoes on top

Terrible experience. The restaurant is run down and definitely needs a facelift. The food was awful and our server, Stephanie, was just as awful. The hamburger was overcooked and when we wanted to send it back, she argued with my cousin that it wasn’t overdone. She then brought back the hamburger covered in mushrooms when it was supposed to have sautéed onions. When the bill came, my cousin had a question about it and Stephanie was super rude. She couldn’t be bothered answering any questions. The way she spoke to my 81 year old cousin was awful! I would never eat here again.

Never been there before. Just stopped in. Music was not blaring, so was able to carry on a conversation with my friend who had her 5 year old with her. Waitress was pleasant and the food was impressive for being bar food. Garlic parmesan mozzarella sticks, Alaskan cod and even though I dint eat fries generally, their steak fries were good. I am a garlic lover, so would have preferred a lot more garlic. Definitely worth a visit, especially if you want to go chill somewhere.

First time at this local sports pub with comfort food and good vibes. Was craving a burger and a beer and this place hit the spot! Salmon and steak dishes were also pretty good! Came on a Sunday afternoon and was surprised to see lots of families with kids which gave it the local neighborhood vibe!

Good Anerican comfort food, great service and large selection of beers.
The portions are big and street parking is very easy.
The inside is a bit old. There is an outdoors area, too.

If you like opening a box of salt and pouring it down your throat then you’ll like it!

Waited 20 minutes for someone to come to our table, then left! They kept walking past our table and avoided making eye contact. No one even acknowledged us to say they would be back, or even giving us water. It wasn't crowded either. Will never come back. Turtle is the right description.
