“Stopped in for dinner with family. We had grilled chicken, green beans, and onion rings. The green beans were excellent, and although the chicken was a little dry it had a good flavor. Our server was very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed the live music and looking at all the vintage decor items. Would stop again.“

“Really cool hidden gem with an awesome atmosphere and live music. The second we walked in, the place had a fun, laid back vibe that made you want to stay awhile. The decor, lighting, and live band gave it a true local smokehouse/music venue feel and honestly that was the highlight of the night. You can tell this is a spot where locals come to relax, listen to music, and have a good time.

We ordered a variety of food including the pulled pork, fried sides, baked beans, cucumber salad, and dessert. The food was decent overall, but nothing really stood out as amazing or memorable. It wasn’t terrible just more average than expected considering how cool the place itself was. The homemade fried pie dessert was probably our favorite thing food-wise. The pulled pork had been sitting all day you could tell as it was dry and harden in a lot of places.

The biggest downside was the service. Our server was friendly when we did see her, but we felt pretty overlooked most of the evening and had long stretches without being checked on. Drinks and basic follow-up took longer than expected, especially since it wasn’t overly packed.

Even with that, we still enjoyed ourselves because the atmosphere and live music carried the experience. If you’re looking for a fun local spot with good vibes, cold drinks, and live entertainment, this place is definitely worth checking out. We’d come back again mainly for the music and overall experience hoping we have a better server.“

“Went on a Sunday evening to celebrate a birthday wirh family. We ordered several dishes to share. Our server recommended a different Soanish wine than we ordered based on what we ordered. She made a perfect suggestion! Give into the experience! You don't have to dress up. Some people wore jeans and a t-shirt. Others had dressy dresses. We ordered the sourdough starter. Entrees were papadelle, mussels, trout, chicken, and oysters. We had all three desserts and a bottle of wine. You have to try it!!“
