I WENT TO THIS PLACE ON A WEEKEND. BAND WAS GOOD. CUSTOMERS GREAT. SERVICE WAS BAD. IT TOOK ME ABOUT 7 MINS JUST TO GET THE BAR TENDER TO MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH ME, EVEN THO SHE SEEN ME COMING TO THE BAR AND WENT TO THE OPPOSITE END OF THE BAR. THIS LONG HAIR WOMAN WITH A BRAIDED PONY TELL ACTS LIKE SHE DOESNT SEE ME..SO NOW EVERYONE IS WATCHING ME WAIT IN HUMILIATION BECAUSE THEY SEE WHATS GOING ON TOO. SO I DECIDE TO ASK A DIFF BAR TENDER AFTER 7 MINS GOES BY. SO I ASK 2ND BAR TENDER FOR A BEER, SHE SAYS GIVE HER A SEC. SECONDS TURN INTO 3 MORE MINS AND FINALLY IM ABLE TO GRAB A BEER. SO I DECIDED TO OPEN A TAB.,SO I DONT HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN. I COME BACK FOR ANOTHER ROUND ON MY OPEN TAB AND SAME THING HAPPENS AGAIN. SO ONE NICE WHITE GUY TELLS ME..THTS MESSED UP HOW THEY TREATING YOU BUDDY. I SAID I KNOW.. IM INVISIBILE BUT HIGHLY VISIBLE AT THIS BAR. I FINALLY GET 2ND BEER 10 MINS LATER. CLOSE MY TAB AND GO HOME IN HUMILIATION. SO IF YOUR A PERSON OF COLOR BEWARE.

Service was atrocious. Parked my car and paid the meter at 3:09 PM on Friday, March 14, 2025. Went in, ordered drinks and looked at the menu. Finally about 20 minutes later the bartender came out of the kitchen and finally came over to take our order. We ordered a bar pie to start and were going to place an order to go for more food before we left to take home for the night. About 40 minutes later we were still waiting for our food and I noticed the bartender walking out of the kitchen and chewing food and got her attention by staring at her because after 40 minutes we still haven’t received our food. At that point, she ran back into the kitchen and came out with our food. The pizza was black and burnt on the bottom and was cold and obviously sitting in the kitchen. When I told her the pizza was cold and burnt on the bottom, she said that she would go have another one made. I told her I can’t wait that long again because I only put an hour in the meter for my parking and I cannot wait again. She insisted on having the pizza made so I can take it to go which I agreed. The second pizza came out in less than five minutes. LESS THAN 5 MINUTES! I waited 40 minutes to get a burnt, cold pizza that I had to send back and it actually only took five minutes to make the 2nd one to go for me. I told her that there was a couple at the end of the bar that came in after us, finished their meal and dinks and left before our food even came out and after 40 minutes we were still waiting for our meal to come out and she said “I hardly think that it was 40 minutes“ I looked at my parking receipt and I got there at 3:09 and left at 4:01, hungry. The funny thing is, I had a bad experience there once before and thought maybe it was just the one day, but it’s evident that the service is really bad and not sure how to rate the cook who burnt my pizza. I read several other reviews that are similar regarding the service and learned a lesson, before I visit a restaurant I will first read the reviews before I visit there. I wish I kept a copy of the bar receipt that I paid because I’m sure it was time stamped because I have my copy of my parking receipt that I paid at 3:09 PM.

Friendly people, nice clean place. The prices seemed good until the tiny wine glasses and small portions arrived. Good if you are trying to eat or drink less, but a bit disappointing.

Waitress forgot to 1) forgot to order our appetizer 2) served the wrong beer. The chef served up a GF Cod taco which looked like it was a plate of food to be scraped into the trash. The sauce looked like watered down mayo, the lettuce was not trimmed and looked like the outside leafs were used which are normally discarded. The rice was not of good quality and actually tasted more like Minute rice. Total disappointment and for me personally I never do this to a restaurant.

The inside in the winter is dark and dinghy, the shades are all down so you can't even enjoy the view. Sports on TV is not relevant, faint music in the background. The draft beer is warm. Bartender Bill was great, Happy hour is ok, nothing great! Summer outside is definitely better!

A very nice place. But they don't have a great variety on the liquor menu.

I sat at the bar, I ate the cesar salad with chicken and it was very good. I also order the lobster bisque and that was disappointing.

Just got done having dinner with my mom. This was my second time visiting with my mom from Chicago. Lauren was my server and was over the top fun and awesome. She made this experience what we wanted the first time(the first time server was brand new.) She absolutely made the experience this place wants to have and brought it to the table. We absolutely will be back next year again! The swordfish was suuuuuuuuuuper good. Bring an appetite, it’s worth it!

First time here. Pulled up and docked the boat. Plenty of seats inside and out. Happy hour drink specials for Sunday football. Plenty of TVs to watch the games. Good wings and sliders.
