Food wasn't good, had a vegetable flat bread, well it was made like a pizza....it wasn't a flat bread, ugh won't be going back.

It used to be quite good food and experience but this last visit was from a nightmare. The decline in service is shocking, going from professional to feeling like your intruding in someone's personal space. The food is just not good now, it's poorly made. Sad to see it go downhill so much.

This place was suggested to me a while ago as having great food. Strolled in on a Sunday just in time for Karaoke to start (after we ordered, or we would have walked right back out). No offense to people who like it, but why does it have to be done in public settings. Karaoke should be like AA; go to a private group and get it out. Maybe take a willing "sponsor" or two, but please don't make listen... please.
Anyway, the bartender was awesome. The beer was great. The wings were superb, but that's were it stopped. The Filet was over cooked, and tasted terrible. Not sure where the asparagus came from (can?) Or was pre poached? The burger had potential on paper, the patty was good (but way past medium), but something on the burger smelled off. The bacon, who knows, but it was disappointing. I took the patty out and ate it. Our dog at the majority of the filet.
So, first off skip Karaoke if it isn't your thing and second I hope the chef called out and this was just a bad night. Everything sounded great and was said to be great by others, so.???

Nice menu. Cozy bar/restaurant with live music and cold beer. I enjoyed the ahi tuna app and the bone in wings.
