The new owners sadly fired the nice bar staff that worked there and scared off a bunch of the nicer regulars. Serena and Jen have been stealing from the owners that used to own it and upcharging the customers since the last owner, and now have continued the same shady habits under the new owners as well.
It's a shame as the place has a ton of potential. Someday maybe the new owners will figure it out. For now don't waste your time.

The food tasted fairly bland, atmosphere felt old? I'm not sure what other word would fit. Server talked to us about how she slept in a bathroom the previous night... just a weird experience, amd not one I'm eager to repeat.

Sadly the new owners fired all the wrong people and have ruined what few positive elements that were to this place. Don't waste your time.

It’s called the Arena…my husband was hoping for hockey theme but alas it would just confuse us more once we entered.
Confusing art on the walls like someone’s grandma decorated with all the art she ever owned in a lifetime, tired decor, but at least it was clean. And we’d had a long day and didn’t want to search for something else. Our hotel was just across the path.
We were tempted by the special on steak and lobster but I feel we wasted our money. My husband was exhausted from his flight and pushed his plate away once he sampled the T bone steak (we both ordered Med Rare but received Med-well) and cold dry overcooked lobster. I sent my steak back and they brought out one that was properly cooked. Actually, I give the owner credit because he did come out and ask about our food once it hit the table and he was the one to order a redo. My potato was not hot enough to melt the butter so once the butter and sour cream were on it I just gave up and ate it cold once I removed the chunk of butter.
Our server was very attentive and made sure everything else was to our liking but its difficult to be a server in a bad restaurant…tips suck and they will lose her if they don’t get it together. They comped our second beer to make up for the disappointment, but I know we won’t go back.
Last note: it was a Saturday night at 6ish and only a few tables had customers…we should have known something was up!

Ordered delivery 1 of 3 items were correct. 1 of 3 dips were correct. Delivery driver didn’t go to the correct door & disturbed a different resident. They have to deliver out the correct food. Not too pleased with order. Second deliver again went to the wrong door. Agh… SMFH!!

I was a little confused as to what type of food this restaurant served when I walked in. There are Egyptian art pieces in the entrance way of the interior, lots of wood details, and old wall paper, which looked very dated. But this adventure was not planned as I had just finished my morning walk and I was very hungry!
The waitress seated me promptly, served me water, and my juice that I had ordered. She then handed me a huge, heavy menu with too many items to choose from. I flopped the first page over to see the breakfast items and ordered Tomas Cooks "The Mess" omelet. It came with hash browns and toast. The omelet was huge!!! The various vegetables gave it a fresh flavor, but other than that, it lacked seasoning and was very bland. The hash browns were cubed and crispy, and they had not been seasoned as well. My poor hash browns were sad :( The little bit of parsley flakes that had been placed on them had now all fallen off.
The restaurant owner had come over to greet me just before my food had arrived, he said they most recently purchased this restaurant and were going to under go a change of menu and such in about 2 months. So, I look forward to trying something then.
