Mother's Day Eve dinner. Food was very good. Service was great, attentive but not invasive. Shared a couple appetizers and each had an entree and a drink. We'll be back. Great experience. I somehow didn't get a picture of my chorizo oysters, but they were delicious

I went for brunch and split the breakfast burrito and French toast with a side of bacon. The bacon was perfectly crispy and I really enjoyed their take on French toast as it came with a caramel sauce. The burrito was stuffed to the max and had a really tasty green sauce! I could have had a tad more sauce on it but all in all it was one of the better breakfast burritos I've had flavor wise. Sitting outside was really enjoyable and no complaints on the service! I'd recommend for brunch.

This place was great! We were in town for a wedding and this was right across from our hotel. We started with the hummus. I'm a big fan of any type of hummus so I may be biased, but theirs was amazing! The chips served with it were perfect and crispy as well. For entrees, I got the chicken ranch wrap. It was super tasty and filling. The rest of the table got the fish and chips and the jambalaya, which both received great reviews as well. I also got a drink named Rosemary's Berry which was the perfect amount of strong while also being nice to sip on. I would definitely come back if we ever find ourselves back in Covington! The service was kind and attentive as well, and the place just felt cozy.

Great casual semi dive bar feel with excellent food and cocktails. I had the Clockwork Orange ? and my husband had the spicy bloody. For bites we went with the burger and fried chicken sandwich. The side salad dressing was excellent. Love the Covington, KY laidback vibe.

We went on an extremely busy night with St Paddy's Day revelers adding to the normal crowd. My jambalaya was good but a little bland. My husband had shrimp and grits. He described them as good, but not great. We'll come back as we enjoy the atmosphere, and have had better meals here other times.

Food and service was excellent. Both had the fish n chips. Large portions of fish n fries. Didn't think we could eat it all but was so good, we did. Wish we had taken a picture. The fries were amazing too. They were thick curly n delicious. The service was great. Acknowledged as soon as I arrived n offered a drink while I waited for my friend to arrive. He was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend.

first time in on a slow monday night. was very happy to be able to get a meal after 9. the pimento burger was great and the fries were so crispy!i’m fascinated by their cocktail menu. i bartend across the river, and had many questions about various ingredients, syrups, and liquors. would’ve never suspected such a sophisticated house cocktail menu— when i walked in it was slow, divey vibe. apparently they have a massive single barrel selection too— i only overheard this though, i hope i didn’t misunderstand what was being said.i will be back!!!

Didn't live up to the recommendations. Jambalaya was dry and reheated. Drinks had to be sent back. Service was slow. Not impressed.

Found this gem and loved it! The cocktails were amazing, best margarita I've ever had, and food was delicious! My only issue is that the dining area isn't very vibrant and could use a good cleaning.Parking: Free parking is hard to find

This was our first time eating here. Food and service were excellent. It was rather loud which wasn't a horrible thing but we had trouble talking to each other because of it. The dining area is quite small with tables really close together.The only real issue we had was parking. After driving around for 10 or 15 minutes looking for a spot, I finally dropped my wife off at the door and found a spot a couple blocks away. There's also parking meters so be sure to have change with you for those.Overall, a great early Valentines Day meal with my wife.

Great service! We had to wait a bit for our reservation table. We asked the bartender about the frozen drinks. He gave us a verbal description and quickly returned with samples. We all ordered one of the drinks! The food was hot and fresh. The table ordered the fish, chicken Philly, jambalaya and hot honey chicken. All were an “order again”. I'll definitely be back.
