Went here for my partners birthday and the service, food, and atmosphere was all 5/5 stars! We got an array of appetizers & several entrees, drinks, & desserts all were so delicious I ate way too much! Bartender recommended a great wine & our server was very attentive & accommodating. The whole staff signed a birthday card it was such a sweet nice touch & perfect close to our dinner experience.

We come here often after work for happy hour. We always request Kelsey as our server because of the impeccable service she gives us. The drinks are good and the cheese curds are excellent.

Love this place! They really have the best fish and chips in DFW, and grilled salmon is also really good. My server, Kelsey was so sweet and actually remembered me from Father's Day. She was so patient and awesome with my dad, since he is the pickiest eater! If you're looking for a good brunch or place to watch a game, it's pretty fun here!
