The triple decker reuben was phenomenal, the cigarette smoke not so much

I got a fried chicken bacon ranch wrap with tots and my husband got a steak n cheese wrap with onion rings. The wraps were good (not great) and the tots and onion rings weren't very good at all. They were definitely not fresh out of the fryer. Both were cold and almost soggy. Would not recommend. We ordered our food for pick-up, so Im not sure how the service is but they allow smoking so Im glad we got our food to go. My husband said the cigarette smoke was very strong as soon as you walked in. My brother says the wings and burgers are pretty good and the Ruben is awful. All in all, its bar food so it is what it is

The Difference Between Sassy and Rude
I love the wings here so four of us decided to try brunch. Based on the full parking lot, I could tell they were very busy. A young waitress said we could sit in the no-smoking section but all the available tables hadn’t been bused because of how busy they were. We said “no problem” and picked the one with only two glasses of water and someone’s check on it. And we waited. And waited. After fifteen minutes, my wife went to the front of the area and retrieved menus so we could determine what to have, since two of our quartet had a three-hour drive after brunch. After another fifteen minutes our waitress came over and said “I didn’t know you were new customers because you sat at a dirty table and you are SUPPOSED to wait to be seated.” Her vitriol hung in the air. She spun on her heals after the rude remark and power walked across the floor. If she had smiled after her jab, I would have told her the other waitress, the young, nice and obviously not stressed out one, told us find a seat. As I led off with, I love the wings here, but from now on will settle for air-fried chicken nuggets from Food Lion before ever stepping foot in Backdraft again. Go Birds

What a wonderful restaurant. The staff treated us like we’ve known each other for years. It was our first time there. Then, the food came. WOW!!! We could have shared my husband’s platter. There was a live band. No complaints. No issues.
We stopped up here one day for the first time, while in the area, for food and drinks, as we were going to Callio to watch the play Clue, we enjoyed our time here very much. We split a Rueben, which was one of the best Reuben sandwiches we've probably ever had, even beating 58 Deli in Va Beach. and I'm glad we split it because it was very filling. Mike, the bartender was outstanding, very friendly. Told us a bit about the area as we live in Kilmarnock, and we're not familiar of those surroundings at that time. We will definitely be back.

This is HANDS DOWN one of the BEST hidden gems of the northern neck. I could eat lunch at this establishment 7 days a week. The food is consistently delicious and their daily specials never cease to impress! The environment is welcoming and the staff treat everyone like family. Pay attention to their Facebook to attend one of their super fun live events!

Only complaint I have about this establishment is that the music was entirely too loud. Well the other complaint was that the alcohol drinks was too strong. And no pouring of the drinks was mixed correctly, no measuring. So it was extremely over poured. All you tasted was straight liquor.

I had the ribeye dinner. It was absolutely fantastic. Served with collard greens and onion rings with a side order of mushrooms and onions!
Always great food and people.
