I enjoyed a nice salad and a beer. They do put $100 hold on your funds for a day. I don't know any restaurant that does that. So I was missing about $70 for a day. I just cause some problems later that afternoon for me.
As a part of my Sperm Donation World Tour of the USA, I came here and stayed till close friendly bar staff pouring good standard drinks where you can taste the alcohol. Someone rang the bell and we all got a free drink so that was cool also. Met alot of people there throughout the night friendly atmosphere.
Great place to hang out with friends and. Dog friendly is awesome 😎
