Very good food. Excellent venue.
There was some confusion in our orders and the steak was delivered med rare instead of med well. When sent back to be finished it never came back. An hour later server went to find it, brought out cold. Given to my friend free. Other 3 orders were no problems.

We sat on the outside patio... Great space but drinks and food take a little longer as it is away from the bar/kitchen.
Fries/tots were cold by the time we got our food. Reorder of drinks take a while, so order another one when you are halfway thru your glass. 😉

An atmospheric place that stays open late. Unfortunately, the menu is limited.
