3. Small selection of mead
Recs:

2. Remove TVs
3. Ale horns/wood...

Meh, wasn't impressed. My older son is really into all things Viking and he/we thought it would've been better since there aren't many restaurants like this anywhere. Self serve, average food, expensive and pop music. No Wardruna, Danheim, Heilung etc..

Service has gone downhill, self service seating, ordering, water, but I guess that is a lot of places now. The prices are insane for what you get. Sad, as I used to really like this place but it’s not reasonable anymore. Food and beer were good though.
