It's been a while since I have been here - my first experience was great. Truly everything about this place (atmosphere, staff, outdoor seating) was perfect! But the food left a lot to be desired. My partner gets a cheeseburger every new place he goes (on the hunt for the tri-cities best!) and was pretty disappointed. He left a few bites and that is very rare for him. He likened the taste to burnt.. something? And maybe a plastic taste? The Brussel sprouts he had were heavily...

Love love love this place. Delicious cocktails. Simple, not overwhelming food menu with well executed dishes that always hit the spot. But the best part? The vibe. I feel like I'm somewhere else when I'm there, like I'm on vacation.

Nothing negative to contribute, only obstacles to 5 stars is limited selection of the usual domestics on tap and rather limited seating capacity. The covered patio is still pretty good sized, and the bar can seat probably 12-15. All the food we tried was dang good, especially the crispy Brussels sprouts, and the place has a nice modernish-Caboose-diner feel! Seems pretty family friendly with a few toys and chalk drawings on the patio, along with some attractive Adirondack chairs...
